E A D G
Ancient walls of flowers tumbling down
E A D G
Black cat petals and a smiling clown
E A D G
I like to keep them in a jar beside
E A D G
Just enough to mess my mind inside
CHORUS:
But I never heard
E A D G
You callin' from the sun
Did you ever care
E A D G
To shoot your silver gun
No I never heard
E A D G
You callin' from the moon
Did you ever care
E A D G
To sing your free love tune
E A D G
Ancient walls of wispers falling low
E A D G
Murmur simmer and I'm feeling slow
E A D G
Keep me up but keep me in my head
E A D G
I'll ping a pound of posies 'til I'm dead
CHORUS:
E A D G
Ancient walls of flowers tumblin' down
E A D G
Ancient walls of flowers tumblin' down
E A D G
Ancient walls of whispers tumblin' down
E A D G
Ancient walls are tumblin' all over this town
