Verse
Gm7/D
A diamond necklace played the pawn
Hand in hand some drummed along, oh
Dm7/G
To a handsome man and baton
Gm7/D
A blind class aristocracy
Back through the opera glass you see
Dm7/G
The pit and the pendulum drawn
Bb Gm7 F/C C7 D/C
Columnated ruins do mi no
G/D A/G
Canvass the town and brush the backdrop
D/A
Are you sleeping?
verse 2
Gm7/D
Hung velvet overtaken me
dim chandelier awaken me
Dm7/G
To a song dissolved in the dawn
Gm7/D
The music hall a costly bow
The music all is lost for now
Dm7/G
To a muted trumperter swan
Bb Gm7 F/C C7 D/C
Columnated ruins do mi no
G/D A/G
Canvass the town and brush the backdrop
D/A D Em7 Gm/F D/F#
Are you sleeping, Brother John?
