A Lion's Heart

[Intro] D F#m G A A7

[Verse] D F#m There's a palace a fallin', there's a smoke in the sky G A A7 There's a boy running downhill to the lowlands tonight D F#m And he's catching the train to where he's heard you have been G A A7 He's a fool now among us, a dreamer within D Dreaming of you D F#m And on that day there was snowfall in the street, yellow light G A A7 And they cleared the bill and rails just by those dark shimmer eyes D F#m In that land there's a winter, in that winter's a day G A A7 In that day there's a moment when it all goes your way

[Chorus] Bm G A And you know it's a lion's heart Bm G A That will tumble and tear apart G A7 D When he's coming down the hills for you

[Verse] D F#m But can you still now remember who's been hiding up there? G A A7 Through his howling at twilight all his songs of despair? D F#m Do you remember the caller of a black and white crime? G A A7 Well he lives by that memory and falls from his mind

[Chorus] Bm G A And you know it's a lion's heart Bm G A That will tumble and tear apart G A7 D When he's coming down the hills for you

[Bridge] F#m G Well he'll walk in the city forever D A Oh, walk in a time to be gone F#m G Well there's no real goodbye if you mean it D A So I guess I'm forever alone

[Verse] D F#m Now he's a stranger among us, he will die in the park G A A7 Where he hides from the statues and the weather remarks D F#m In that land there's a winter, in that winter's a day G A A7 In that day there's a moment when it all goes away

[Chorus] Bm G A And you know it's a lion's heart Bm G A That will tumble and tear apart G A7 D When he's coming down the hills for you
