Progression: G A A G A A G A A G A A B C# Repeat this 8 times: [x00231] [x02220] Dm/A A With verse: [x33211] [x30210] F/C C Sisters by the wayside bide their time in quiet peace, await their place within the ring of calm. Dm/A A Still stand to turn in seconds of release, await the call they know may never come. F/C C In times of lightness no intruder dared upon to jeopardize the course, upset the run. Dm/A A All was joy and hands were raised towards the sun, as love in halls of plenty overrun. [xx0233] [xx0232] Dsus4 D Ah, ah, ah, ah. Then 4 times in the same pattern: [113331] [133211] Bb/F F 4 times: Dm/A A F/C C Still in their bliss unchallenged mighty feast, unending dances shadowed on the day. Dm/A A Within the wall their dauting formless keep, preserved their joy and kept their doubts at bay. F/C C Faceless legions stood in readiness to weep, just turn a coin, bring order to the fray. Dm/A A And everything is soon no sooner thought than deed, but no-one seemed to question anyway. Dsus4 D Ah, ah, ah, ah. 4 times: Bb/F F Then the keyboard does a little roll which kinda goes like this: |: A~ F G :| [Play it four times] F/C C How keen the soaring hunter`s eye prevails upon the land, to seek the unsuspecting and the weak. Dm/A A And powerless the fabled sat, too slow to lift a hand, toward the foe that threatened them from the deep. F/C C Who cares to dry the cheeks of those who saddened stand, adrift upon the sea of futile speech? Dm/A A Wha?? Dsus4 D Ah, ah, ah, ah. 4 times: Bb/F F Then the keyboard does that little roll again: |: A~ F G :| [Play it four times] The keyboard does another thing but I`ll list the chords here: |: F G Em :| [Play it three times] |: A~ F G :| [two times] |: F G Em :| [Play it three times] |: A~ F G :| [two times] |: F G Em :| [Play it three times] [This is in D]: [Riff 1] - play it once initially Em D A G C D e:--7------5~-----5------5~------3------0------0------2~-------------| B:----8------7------7------5-------3------1------1----3~-------------| G:------9------7~-----7------6~------4------0---------2~-------------| D:----------------------------------------------------0~-------------| A:-------------------------------------------------------------------| E:-------------------------------------------------------------------| e:--7------5~-----5------5~------3------0------0---------------------| B:----8------7------7------5-------3------1------1-------------------| G:------9------7~-----7------6~------4------0------------------------| D:-------------------------------------------------------------------| A:-------------------------------------------------------------------| E:-------------------------------------------------------------------| [Back to the key of C]: [Riff 2] A Cmaj7 e:--0~---------------0~----------------------------------------------| B:--2~---------------0~----------------------------------------------| G:--2~---------------0~----------------------------------------------| D:--2~---------4-----2~----------------------------------------------| A:--0~-------0---0---3~----------------------------------------------| E:-------------------------------------------------------------------| [Riff 2] x2 [Riff 2] with lyrics: Where was your word, where did you go?

Keyboard bangs out an A chord, then it plays a G for four measures [final key switch to G], then A again for four measures.
