Lewis Watson - The Peaks

F Dm A# x2

F
so they came one by one ,
Dm A#
there was never any warning ,
F Dm A#
bled out the stuck pig fields like it was gonna last , long ,
Am A#
and i saw the whole rise ,
F Dm A#
i saw the whole thing fall , down ,
Dm F A#
and all flesh spun , a lattice of it reaching out

F Dm A#
and im left holding my head , looking down at every grave ,
Dm F A#
and all millennia pass just a flicker in a wave ,
F Dm A#
and ive seen more villages burn than animals born ,
F Dm A#
ive seen more towers come down than children grow up

F
cross the peaks , cross the marsh
Dm A#
cross your fingers for the last time ,
F
and pass out the blame to someone ,
Dm A#
and never stepping up , son!
F Dm A#
nobodys asking; why is your head bent down? so?
Dm F A#
theres trillions lost , im dreaming of a different time

F Dm A#
and im left holding my head , looking down at every grave ,
Dm F A#
and all millennia pass just a flicker in a wave ,
F Dm A#
and ive seen more villages burn than animals born ,
F Dm A#
ive seen more towers come down than children grow up
