Daedalus Rising

	  		 

G 

G 
There, over there 
   Em                      G 
Has gone, goes and will go 

The copper sun  
                                Em 
Tarnishes with the year's tears 

The golden golden copper sun 
    G 
Old  eldest dead 
                        Em 
Over the blue milky sea sky 

Loss and lost and losing 

Am       C     A 
  Do not weep 
              Em     G 
All this is passing 


All the birds wing and fall 

Through the heavens 
     Em 
The cloudy clouds 

Of snow of dew and of smoke 
               G 
A shuddering reflection 

Vanishing with the dropped stone 
      Em 
Oh, I wait under the spaces 
                      G 
Under the molten star rain 
                             Em 
The flashing falling planets 

Do not weep 

            Am 
All this is passing  
        C     A 
Do not weep 
          Em           G 
All this is passing 


So high I could come 
             Em 
So far I shall fall 

Daedalus broken 
          G 
Daedalus falling 

By the tooth stones 
  
His shapes bends 
                    Em 
And makes s smiling bow 

He careers and spiral down 
             G 
Falls, falls 

He waves words of farewell 
        Em 
"Oh, do not weep 

All of this passing 

           Am 
To fail is human 
         C 
Do not weep 
             A 
To fall is human 
              Em 
All this is passing 

            G 
To hope is human 

Do not weep 

As the sound disappears 
            Em 
As the rain falls 

As the sky parts 

As my tears fall 

Do not weep 
         G 
I shall wait for you" 

Daedalus broken 
           Em 
Daedalus falling 

Do not weep 

All this is falling 

Do not weep 
             G 
All this is falling 

Do not weep 

All this is passing... 

Do not weep 
         Em 
All this is passing...
