Genre: ambient, new age, instrumental
Jerome has a sort of sauntering vocal style, so pinning down exactly where
the chord changes occur can be a bit
tricky if you're relying solely on this transcription. The chord changes keep
easy time, so just focus on that
as your guide and listen to the song if you get really hung up on the timing
of the lyrics.
Capo on 3
Intro:
Am Em D
Am
On this day all the trees in Rhodesia are aflame
As the eyes of the griever
Em D
With flowers of aching replete
Am
And my mind's overflowing with vengeance
For to pine is not an occupation but a sentence
Em D
And in time we will all be faking retreat
Am
Have you got rid of it yet?
This faith corroded with neglect
Em D
Can we ever hide the hurt?
Am
At least at night the harvest sun's yoke
Is rising like rebel smoke
Em D
Beyond the oceans in swirls
Am
And it will shame us now
C G
And it will shame us still
Am
And it will shame us now
C G
And it will shame us still
Am [for 4 beats]
Am
What a hollow promise from hollow men
Em D
What a shallow grave for shallow men
Am
You're the bull that paws the earth
The leopard that teaches to run
Em D
You're the crocodile that eats the sun
Am
So we walk on through and beyond
