There are broken birds scattered over the white cliffs of Dover
Am C
Once I read and so I thought
Em
(Firstly the red dragon rises in the east)
Am C
So I sat and still I thought
Em
(Then the white dragon rises from the north)
Am C
I start to walk and my mind turns
Em
(Out of clouds a smoke-ish dragon rises from the west)
Am C
It seems to me the world is dying
Em
(Smiling teeth and black dragon rising in the south)
Am C
Whilst rosy stars fall from heaven
Em
(Turn to starry roses in greening grasses)
Am C
Burnt burning smiles lovers' tokens
Em
(Soft white breasts unveiling nature)
Am C
My mother sighs my father lies
Em
(With scattered pebbles and dying horses)
Am C
The moon is violent violent and vaporous
Em
(Seas of horses buildings tumble)
Am C
Once I read and so I thought
Em
(Firstly the red dragon rises in the east)
Am C
We shall move and still I'll think
Em
(Then the white dragon rises from the north)
Am C
All this world is such a bind
Em
(Out of clouds a smoke-ish dragon from the west)
Am C
It seems to me people smile
Em
(Smiling teeth and black dragon rising in the south)
Am C
Whilst rosy stars fall from heaven
Em
(Turn to starry roses in greening grasses)
Am C
Burnt burning smiles lovers' tokens
Em
(Soft white breasts unveiling nature)
Am C
My mother sighs my father lies
Em
(Scattered pebbles the world falls)
Am C
The moon is violent violent and vaporous
Em
(Seas of horses part for me)
