"Brighter Than Gold"
EbmFour steps in the morning
Two steps in the day
Three steps in the evening and the darkness is ablaze
And all the Bangels cease, soldiers come step to the paradEbme
EbmRun out like a cheetah
Monkey's in the blood
And what a piece of work is man who screams the name of love
And all his Bbrothers, cousins, sisters and others hear it's fuEbmzz
F#All C#night aEbmwake
In the Bmoonlight I'm F#with C#you
In the Bmoonlight I'm F#with you
C#Brighter than Ebmgold!
EbmBorn on the horizon
Beam me through the sky
Some have seen what none can dream but life calls it a lie
And all the Bsinners, saints and winners just wink and walk on byEbm  
EbmBrando's in the forest, Nancy's in the flood
The black swan makes a pirouette, the gods cry from above
And the Brain keeps falling on bare feet in the mudEbm  
F#All C#night aEbmwake
In the Bmoonlight I'm F#with C#you
In the Bmoonlight I'm F#with you
C#Brighter than Ebmgold!

Come sunrise from the East
Come Wicked Witches in the West, we're South-bound with the beat
