Вступление
[Verse]
Fm C Db Ab G
An apocryphal popular mythology or a civilization in wane
Fm Eb Db Ab G
Whatever your assessment is, a paradox remains
Fm C Db Ab G
There's a moral and intellectual vacuum and you're right to be lookin' askance
Fm Eb Db Ab G
Philosophically moribund, revolution hasn't a chance
[Chorus]
Fm C Db Eb
As the light fades, the shadows dance in silhouette to stars
Fm Db Eb Fm
Despite all illusion we approach the darkest hour
[Verse]
Fm C Db Ab G
Is the enemy hiding in your conscience or can forgiveness pave the way?
Fm Eb Db Ab G
There's got to be a place for them if tomorrow's a better day
Fm C Db Ab G
With the high-priest banging on the war drum you cannot make out what he's saying
Fm Eb Db Ab G
With all the litter on the battlefield, no higher ground remains
[Chorus]
Fm C Db Eb
As the light fades, the shadows dance in silhouette to stars
Fm Db Eb Fm
Despite all illusion we approach the darkest hour
[Outro]
Fm C Db Ab G
Welcome to the show
Fm C Db Ab G
History took a toll
Fm
Discontent was sown
C
But now the child is grown
Db
And come into his own
Eb
A superstar
Fm Db Eb Fm
But despite all illusion we approach the darkest hour
