Intro: 

Am C/G Em Am x2 


verse 1: 
  
 Am                  C/G 
 I awoke troubled by awful sounds 
  Am                              C/G 
 Where the sky was dim and cities shining 
                             Fmaj7/C 
 One by one we're turning the old statue 
 Am                            C/G 
 Now I have seen all they have offered me 
 Am                           C/G 
 And all my words will simply die 
                              Fmaj7/C 
 One by one, we're turning the old statue 

 Am C/G Em Am Am C/G Em
