G C
There are places we must go to
G
To bring these hollow words on back from
D
You must cross the muddy river
G C
Where love turns to love turns to fear
 
G
They say you don't look
D
There's only one way
G C
On back from on back from here
G
They say you don't look
D
They say you don't look
G C
'Cause it'll disappear

G C
And our eyes they keep on strainin'
G
As if to see what lies behind them
D
Through the shells of empty buildings
G C
And great columns of glass
G
They say you don't look
D
They say you don't look
G C
Cause it'll drive you mad
G
And if it drives you mad
D
If it drives you mad
G C
It'll prob'ly pass
