Am F

At first there was only a trace

C F

But the building quickened it’s pace

Will you sign this paper my friend

And pour the whiskey round

Am F

As the big wheel barrels on through

And the towers rise up all around

'Til there's nothing left we can do

But watch her spiraling down

She was a rose, a bloomin’ rose

Come and go in shadow
