     D                  G
The answer lies in the nest of thorns

     D                     Bm
The Baltic breeze and the broken hearts

You once were a child all feather and shield

To your keen eye was the whole world new

You sit around town, you've not a smile to spare

Your melted prayer on the city hall square

[Verse 2]
       D                  G
I was so far past on the sunny hill rail

           D                   Bm
Where the old train tracks go no place cold

     A                   A
Let life leave a bit of love for you

                 G                       G
And then you'll not be heard and you'll not be true

     D                 G
The Darcey Boys got a wind so far

     D                        Bm
But I'm still drinking in the same old bar

     A                            A
And there, a lost love to these long nights still

G                             G
All things considered, I wish you well

[Interlude with bass] D [Verse 3]
    D                      G
A sand-downed fury like a dead man's cast

        D                      Bm
So the body-bob curse will be down to the trail

    A                      A
It all came rushing in a stream of fire

  G                              G
I make the last draft in the grasper's buyer

D                         G
Back in the day, all the people would sing

D                             Bm
Back, ring the bell, that's the gun that we'd ring

A                      A
I see us all safe living through the mire

 G                     G
A laughing breeze and some sad desires
