[Verse 1]
N.C.
I was a pilgrim in early life, I traveled at night
N.C.
Bound for Jordan just ten miles north of a civil war
Dsus2* Dsus2*
Immersed in mercy in holy flood
Dsus2* Dsus2*
That mingled with blood
Dsus2* Dsus2*
My sextant headed for homebound lands
Dsus2*
Through twilight sands
Dsus2* Dsus2*
But I grew weary and too far-gone
Dsus2* Dsus2*
To carry on
Dsus2* Dsus2*
At first my home and my empire soon
Dsus2* Dsus2*
Would there assume
[Chorus]
D G Gmaj7/B Asus4
I'm watching my kingdom tumbling down
D G Gmaj7/B
You're flooding my refuge underground
D G Gmaj7/B Asus4
My kingdom for angels, mighty surround
Bb Dsus2*
To take me away from here
[Verse 2]
Dsus2* Dsus2*
A sea of sand came through fiery pass
Dsus2* Dsus2*
A sea of glass
Dsus2* Dsus2*
An ivory fortress and turret's steel
Dsus2*
Would swift reveal
Dsus2* Dsus2*
The gods of beast and of sun and sky
Dsus2* Dsus2*
With banners high
Dsus2* Dsus2*
Were worshipped in their six temples fold
Dsus2* Dsus2*
Of desert gold
[Chorus]
D G Gmaj7/B Asus4
I'm watching my kingdom tumbling down
D G Gmaj7/B
You're flooding my refuge underground
D G Gmaj7/B Asus4
My kingdom for angels, mighty surround
Bb Dsus2*
To take me away from here
[Verse 3]
N.C.
In summer's sting, as the sages say
N.C.
The sand gave way
N.C.
My empire capsized at vanity's cost
N.C. Dsus2*
And all were lost
[Chorus]
D G Gmaj7/B Asus4
I'm watching my kingdom tumbling down
D G Gmaj7/B
You're flooding my refuge underground
D G Gmaj7/B Asus4
My kingdom for angels, mighty surround
Bb
To take me away
D G Gmaj7/B Asus4
I'm watching my kingdom crumble and fall
D G Gmaj7/B
You're building Your kingdom over all
D G Gmaj7/B Asus4
I'm cursing my wisdom while the angels I call
Bb Bb Dsus2*
To take me away, to take me away from here
