[Verse 1]
C
Was it a dream
D
Where I wandered off the trail
Aimlessly drawn
C
And came to a clearing
G
On the hill of town
C
Still hearing calls
[Verse 2]
C
And a circle of stone
D
Surrounded a pool of black water and sky
C G
Where I reached in and pulled out a song
C
Ceremoniously young
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
I think I dreamt it
G
Standing on the street in the wind looking south
Am
Hunting for singing
G
Indulging imagining words in the wind
[Chorus]
C
But nothing means nothing
D
Everything is fleeting
Em
Don't get used to it
Am C
I say, look upon the ruins
[Instrumental 2]

[Verse 3]
C
Two distant branches on the hill
D
There's no song, no sacredness now
C G
What I'd called the spirit world blows into dust
C G
Like me, and the song
C
Born of alienation
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Ancient questions
G Am
Unanswered, alive in me again
G
Indulging imagining words in the wind
[Chorus]
C
But nothing means nothing
D
Everything is fleeting
Em
Don't get used to it
Am C
I say, look upon the ruins
[Instrumental]

G C G
[Outro]
C
Voice in the branches
G
Pulling me still
