Chord/Tab song: To a Teacher

[C]C Hurt once and for all into silence A long pain ending without a
C song to prove it Who could stand
F beside you so close to Eden, when you glinted in every eye the held-high razor,
C shivering every ram and son?
C And now the silent loony bin, where the shadows live in the rafters like day-weary bats,
F Until the turning mind, a radar signal, lures them to exaggerate
C G7 Mountain-size on the white stone wall your tiny limp
C How can I leave
F you in such a house? Are there no more saints and wizards to praise their ways with pupils,
C No more evil to stun with the slap of a wet red tongue?
G7 Did you confuse the Messiah in a mirror and rest because he had finally
C come? Let me cry
F Help beside you, Teacher I have entered under this dark roof as fearlessly
C as an honored son enters his father's house
