[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
