Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D Em Bm
A husband waits outside
A D G Bm
A crying child pushes a child into the night
D Em Bm
She was told he would come this time
A D G Bm
Without leaving so much as a feather behind
A D F#
To enact, at last, the perfect plan
F#7 Bm A G
One more sweet boy to be butchered by man
[Chorus]
Em D A
But the gateway to the world
D G Bm
Was still outside the reach of him
Em D A
Would never belong to angels
D G Bm
Had never belonged to man
Em D A F#7
The swan upon Leda
G D
Empire upon Jerusalem
[Verse 2]
Em Bm
A grandmother smuggling meds
A D G Bm
Past where the god child-soldier, Setanta, stood dead
D Em Bm
Our graceful turner of heads
A D G Bm
Weaves through the checkpoints like a needle and thread
A D F#
Someone's frightened boy waves her on
F#7 Bm A G
She offers a mother's smile and soon, she's gone
[Chorus]
Em D A
The gateway to the world
D A Bm
The gun in a trembling hand
Em D A
Where nature unmakes the boundary
D G Bm
The pillar of myth still stands
Em D A F#7
The swan upon Leda
G D
Occupier upon ancient land
[Instrumental]
Em D A D G Bm
Em D A D G Bm
Em D A F# G D
[Outro]
Em D A
The gateway to the world
D G Bm
Was still outside the reach of him
Em D A F#
Would never belong to angels
G D
Had never belonged to men
