DGDG
Mountainous pictures of coloured scenes appear upon my face
DEmGA#D
And the joss stick smoke of sense dissolves, forever in its place
DGDG
The shadowy friends that line the walls all dream while laying down
DEmGA#D
While the window tapping silhouette in rain begins to drown
Chorus A:
DGCF
In the room of percussion
CFCG
The discussion slides as you enter through the door
DGCF
And the one armed bandit
CFCG
Laughs aloud and disappears once more
DGDG
Foolish thoughts of ecstasy are dead but without too much concern
DEmGA#D
In the hearth, my hopes by millions lay twisted as they burn
DGDG
The crooked faces of clocks appear and die in nightmare dreams
DEmGA#D
While juggling music surrounds us both and turns our thoughts to screams
Chorus B:
DGCF
In the room of percussion
CFCG
The discussion slides as you enter through the door
DGCF
And the one armed bandit
CFCG
Laughs aloud and disappears once more
AmF
My God, the spiders are everywhere!
DGDG
With ruby wine and our tangled nerves, our mouths flap in despair
DEmGA#D
And with tumbled words of poetry, we try and prove we care
DGDG
But the glow-worm light of creativeness moves out into the rain
DEmGA#D
And the joss stick dies and disappears, its scent alone remains
