E C#m
the streets are cracked
E
and there’s glass everywhere
A
and a baby stares out
E
with motherless eyes
C#m
under long gone beauty
E
on fields of war
A
trapped in lament
E
to the poet’s core
C#m E A E
oh where oh where will i be
C#m E A E C#m E A E
oh where oh when that trumpets sounds
E C#m E
met an indian boy in ottawa
A E
he laid me down on a bed of straw
C#m E
said don’t waste your breath don’t waste your heart
A
don’t blister your heels
E
running in the dark
C#m E A E
oh where oh where will i be
C#m E A E
oh where oh when that trumpets sounds
C#m E
yea like the heat
A E
of your body laying under me
F#m A
may your wild lip get you where your going
F#m A
with your inventions your intentions your laughter
E
your forever yearning
C#m E A E
oh where oh where will i be
C#m E A E C#m E A E
oh where oh when that trumpets sounds
C#m
i walked to the river
E
and i walked to the rim
A E
i walked thru the teeth of the reaper’s grin
C#m E
i walked to you rolled up in wire
A E
to the other side of desire
C#m E A E
oh where oh where will i be
C#m E A E
oh where oh when that trumpets sounds

oh where oh where oh when that trumpet sounds
E C#m E
well the heart opens wide like it’s never seen love
A E
and addiction stays on tight like A glove
C#m E A E
oh where oh where will i be
