Verse 7
D
Em
walking in a Black Forest lane
C
And I step into the trees for to
G
get some leafy shade
D
And I fall asleep in some
Em
dappled sunlit glade
C
And I dream and in my dream
D
G
I am lost and afraid
And it grows dark,
D
Em
it grows damp and I shiver and I'm cold
G
And deep inside the forest
Em
something obscenely old
G
Stirs and shakes and comes
Em
awake and in it's putrid pit
G
It belches and it squirms
Em
in its own dirt and filth
G
And slithers on it's stinking slime
Em
while everything holds its breath
G
And its slow thighs,
Em
blank eyes pitiless as the past
G
Re born from its fitful sleep, its
Em
hour come again at last
G
Slouches towards its own Jer
Em
usalem to be re- cast
G
And in my horror I recognise
Em
myself in it as it passes
G
Familiar and repulsive and as
Em
old as mortal man
G
This philosophy of brutality,
Em
ignorance and hate
G
Em
Buried deep in everyone waiting
to escape
G
And you must kill it before it kills
Em
you and everything in its wake
G
And I take my knife and I kill it,
Em
and it screams and then I wake
G
And I'm terrified and horrified
Em
and in this mortal state
G
I stagger toward the curbside of the
Em
4 lane motorway
G
"Drive" I say and we drive
Em
and soon I stop shaking
G
Em
But I can't stop thinking 'bout these
dreams and revelations
G
Except it's not a dream it's real and
Em
it's of our own making
G
And it's not just Germany it's everywhere
Em
and the whole world is a- quaking
G
As we turn onto this road we
Em
all seem to be taking
C
D
And you can't help thinking these things on the roads
