The Eternal

Am                                   Em
Procession moves on, the shouting is over
F                                 Am
Praise to the glory of loved ones now gone
Am                                    Em
Talking aloud as they sit round their tables
F                                 Am
Scattering flowers washed down by the rain
Am                                   Em
Stood by the gate at the foot of the garden
F                                 Am
Watching them pass like clouds in the sky
Am                            Em
Try to cry out in the heat of the moment
F                              Am
Possessed by a fury that burns from inside

[Verse 2]
Am                                           Em
Cry like a child, though these years make me older
F                                      Am
With children my time is so wastefully spent
Am                                   Em
A burden to keep, though their inner communion
F                              Am
Accept like a curse an unlucky deal
Am                                Em
Played by the gate at the foot of the garden
F                                           Am
My view stretches out from the fence to the wall
Am                                Em
No words could explain, no actions determine
F                                              Em
Just watching the trees and the leaves as they fall
