JOAN OSBORNE - Cathedrals (2008)
(Capo I)
[F] [G] [Em] [Am]
[F]In the shadows [G]of tall buildings
[Em]Of fallen angels [Am]on the ceilings
[F]Oily feathers [G]and bronzen concrete
[Em]Faded colors, [A7]pieces left incom[Dm]plete
[Dm]The light moves [G]slowly past the elect[C]ric fence
[C]Across the borders [Am]between conti[Dm]nents
[Dm]In the Cathedrals [G]of New York and [C]Rome
[C]There is a feeling [Am]that you should just go [Dm]home
[Dm]And spend the lifetime [G]finding out just where that [F]is[G][Em][Am]
In the shadows of tall buildings
The architecture is slowly peeling
Marble statues and glass dividers
Someone is watching all of the outsiders
The line moves slowly through the numbered gate
Past the mosaic of the Head of State
In the Cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend the lifetime finding out just where that is
In the shadows of tall buildings
Of open arches and lessly knealing
Sonic landscapes echoing vistas
Someone is listening from a safe distance
The line moves slowly into the fading light
A final moment in the dead of night
In the Cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
[Dm]And spend the lifetime [G]finding out just where that [F]is[Am][A7][Dm]
In the Cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend the lifetime finding out just where that is
