Genesis – Harlequin (Guitar)

G                C
Came the night a mist dissolved the trees

Cm         G            A            Am        (G/F G/E G/Eb G/D)
And in the broken light colours fly, fading by

G                C
Pale and cold as figures fill the glade

Cm          G              A              Am        (G/F G/E G/Eb G/D)
Grey is the web they spin, on and on, and on and on

G           Gm          Cm             Gm
Through the flame still summer lingers on

Gm                       Eb  A
Though her pictures soon shatter

G    D
All, always the same

          Bm             Dmaj7
But there appears in the shades of dawning

Em          Gmaj7
Though your eyes are dim

N.C.                 D
All of the pieces in the sky

G                C
There was once a harvest in this land

Cm            G              A          Am        (G/F G/E G/Eb G/D)
Reap from the turquoise sky, harlequin, harlequin

G                    C
Dancing round, three children fill the glade

Cm             G               A                   Am         (G/F G/E G/Eb G/D)
Theirs was the laughter in the winding stream, and in between

G          Gm        Cm            Gm
Close your door, the picture fades again

Gm                    Eb   A
From the flames in the firelight

G    D
All, always the same

          Bm             Dmaj7
But there appears in the shades of dawning

Em          Gmaj7
Though your eyes are dim

N.C.                 D
All of the pieces in the sky

G    D
All, all is not lost

          Bm             Dmaj7
And light appears in the shades of dawning

Em        Gmaj7
When your eyes can see

N.C.                  D
Order the pieces, put them back, put them back
