E   A   C#m   F#   A   E   A  E

[Verse 1]
E                          A
There were signs up in the sky
C#m                     F#
When we gathered by the garden wall
A                       E
Everybody on his best behavior
A                 E
Listening for the altar call

E                           A
High priest of Salem in his robes
C#m                          F#
Ranting at the coming of the Day
A             E
Ravens at the gates
A                              E
Frightening all the visitors away

[Chorus]
Bm                 A
I lay down by the water
E
Dreamed a dream of where I come from
                 Bm    A
Old things made new
            E
Waiting for you

[Verse 2]
E                          A
There were wooden wind-chimes rustling
       C#m                             F#
In the trees above the anthills on the dunes
A                          E
On the high winds we could hear them
A            E
Old familiar tunes

E                          A
The little bit of faith we had once
C#m                  F#
Like the memory of a movie
A                            E
They got burned up the great fire
A                              E
Reassembling itself slowly but surely

[Chorus]
Bm                 A
I lay down by the water
E
Dreamed a dream of where I come from
                 Bm    A
Old things made new
            E
Waiting for you
