Treasure Of The Broken Land

	  		



G                  C       G 
I see you now and then in dreams  
G                              C     G 
Your voice sounds just like it used to 
G                         D        Em  
I know you better than I knew you then  
C                  D     G 
All I can say is I love you  

G                       C     G 
I thought our days were commonplace  
G                            C    G 
Thought they would number in millions  
G                    D       Em  
Now there's only the aftertaste  
C                                     D   G 
Of circumstance that can't pass this way again  

(Chorus) 
G               C       G 
Treasure of the broken land 
G                             D      G 
Parched earth, give up your captive ones  
G               C    G 
Waiting wind of Gabriel 
G    Em            D      G 
Blow soon upon the hollow bones  


G                                     C  G 
I saw the city at its tortured worst 
G                                     C  G 
And you were outside the walls there  
G                       D        Em  
You were relieved of a lifelong thirst  
C                D     G 
I was dry at the fountain  

G                                  C  G 
I knew that you could see my shame  
G                                  C  G 
But you were eyeless and sparing  
G                 D        Em 
I awoke when you called my name  
C                  D    G 
I felt the curtain tearing  
G                 D        Em 
I awoke when you called my name  
C                  D    G 
I felt the curtain tearing  

(Chorus) 
G               C      G 
Treasure of the broken land 
G                           D        G 
Parched earth, give up your captive ones  
G               C    G 
Waiting wind of Gabriel 
G    Em            D      G 
Blow soon upon the hollow bones  


C       Bm      C        D  
                          All the way to Macon 
C       Bm      C        D  
                         All the way to Macon 
G      

G                               C  G 
I can melt the clock hands down 
G                               C  G 
But only in my memory 
G               D       Em  
Nobody gets the second chance 
C                     D        G 
To be the friend they meant to be  
G                 C       G 
I see you now and then in dreams  
G                               C   G 
Your voice sounds just like it used to  
G                 D      Em  
I believe I will hear it again 
C         D    G 
God how I love you
