Best Of The Best Of Times

B

         B
When the world speaks
                              B
It rattles through me like an antique
                          B
Or maybe it rings like an old bell
                      B
Wishing us some kinda farewell
                          B
A weight in the window, a beacon
    B
The batten down
           B
End of the season
        B
Lullaby blue
      E
It is two doves
                        B
Shot in the heat of the summer
And truer than words

        B         E
We're a long way, long way
         B
From the best of the best of times

There’s a broken clock tower out in the ocean
                     B
Holding me under the table
                      B
Tether me down like a cradle
B
Drowning me out
        B    E
With an amen barrel ahead
         F#
And an auld lang syne
     B
And everything’s fine

        B         E
We're a long way, long way
         B                     E
From the best of the best of times
  B              E
A long way, long way
                     B
From the best of the best of times

      B
And I wonder
                       B
Whether our days are unnumbered
                       B
If one is the same as another
                       B
Whether we mistook the colours
B
For the real thing
         B
If we'll ring out
B                       F#
Brimming and broken and somehow
B
Truer than blue
         B
And then come to
B
Pulled from the wreck
       F#
In the day break
     B
All equal and safe

        B         E
We're a long way, long way
         B                     E
From the best of the best of times
  B              E
A long way, long way
                     B
From the best of the best of times
