Of Dust And Nations

[Intro] Em  Am  Em  Am

Em
The towers that shoulder your pride

The words you've written in stone
Am
Sand will cover them, sand will cover you
Em
The streets that suffer your name

Your very flesh and your bones
Am
Sand will cover them, sand will cover you

            C                  Em
So put your faith in more than steel
                 G
Don't store your treasures up, with moth and rust
      D
Where thieves break in and steal
         C                Em
Pull the fangs from out your heel
   Bm                           C
We live in but a shadow of the real

Em                          Am
Step out from time, see the dust of nations
Em                           G       D
Step out from time, hear the stars ovation

Am
Saturn will not sleep, until the sand has made us clean
          Em                               D
Still we stack our stones and bury what we can
       Am
But it all will be undone, and nothing built under the sun
          Em                                D
Will ever stand before the endless march of sand

            C                  Em
So put your faith in more than steel
                 G
Don't store your treasures up, with moth and rust
      D
Where thieves break in and steal
         C                Em
Pull the fangs from out your heel
   Bm                          C
We live in but a shadow of the real

            C                  Em
So put your faith in more than steel
                 G
Don't store your treasures up, with moth and rust
      D
Where thieves break in and steal
         C                   Em
Pull the fangs from out your heel
   Bm                          C
We live in but a shadow of the real

( Em  Am  Em )
