E D The brilliance of my fleeting mind C B chimes like voices in foreign caves E D it chimes in time - takes me where I'm going C Alone my fleeting mind is knowing B E believe it when I pin it down D A E And that's not hard to forget D With my hands upon my knees A E You will steal from my fleeting mind [Verse 2] E Remember all our words D they are just smoke rings in the rain : C that's just a poem in brilliant places E but poets, they are too grim they steal like party thieves D from crowded rooms C B to rhyme their homes with better places E The brilliance of their minds D will seek with never knowing C alone my fleeting mind is knowing B E believe it when I pin it down D A E And that's not hard to forget D with my thought like sifting leaves A E I believe in my fleeting mind. (Solo) E The brilliance of their minds D will seek with never knowing C alone my fleeting mind is knowing B E believe it when I pin it down D A E And that's not hard to forget x4 to fade
