[Intro]
C Em9/D C Em9/D C Em9/D
C Em9/D
[Verse 1]
C Em9/D C Em9/D
And here I dreamt I was a soldier
C Em9/D C Em9/D
And I marched the streets of Birkenau
C Em9/D
And I recall in spring
C Em9/D
The perfume that the air would bring
C Em9/D
To the indolent town
C Em9/D C Em9/D C Em9/D
Where the barkers call the moon down
C Em9/D C Em9/D
The carnival was ringing loudly now
C Em9/D
And just to lay with you
C Em9/D
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
C Em9/D C
Save lay my rifle down
[Chorus]
Em9/D C
And try one, and try two
Em9/D C
Guess it always comes down to
Em9/D C
Alright, it's okay
Em9/D C C Em9/D C Em9/D C Em9/D C Em9/D
Guess it's better to turn this way
[Verse 2]
C Em9/D C Em9/D
And I am nothing of a builder
C Em9/D C Em9/D
But here I dreamt I was an architect
C Em9/D
And I built this balustrade
C Em9/D
To keep you home, to keep you safe
C Em9/D
From the outside world
C Em9/D C Em9/D C Em9/D
But the angles and the corners
C Em9/D C Em9/D
Even though my work is unparalleled
C Em9/D
They never seemed to meet
C Em9/D
This structure fell about our feet
C Em9/D C
And we were free to go
[Chorus]
Em9/D C
And try one, and try two
