[Verse]
The Gmlamps now glitter down the street;
Ebmaj7Faintly sound the falling feet;
And the Fblue even slowly falls
About the Gmgarden trees and walls.
GmNow in the falling of the gloom
The Ebmaj7red fire paints the empty room:
And Fwarmly on the roof it looks,
And flickers Gmon the backs of books.
[Chorus]
And Ebwhat the burning city is
That Bbcrumbles in your furnaces!
And Ebwhat the burning city is
That Bbcrumbles in Fyour furnaces!

[Verse]
GmArmies march by tower and spire
Of Ebmaj7cities blazing, in the fire;—
FTill as I gaze with staring eyes,
The Gmarmies fade, the lustre dies.
Then Gmonce again the glow returns;
AEbmaj7gain the phantom city burns;
And Fdown the red-hot valley, lo!
The phantom Gmarmies marching go!
[Chorus]
And Ebwhat the burning city is
That Bbcrumbles in your furnaces!
And Ebwhat the burning city is
That Bbcrumbles in Fyour furnaces!

[Verse]
Gm
Armies march by tower and spire
Ebmaj7
Of cities blazing, in the fire;—
F
Till as I gaze with staring eyes,
Gm
The armies fade, the lustre dies.
Gm
Then once again the glow returns;
Ebmaj7
Again the phantom city burns;
F
And down the red-hot valley, lo!
Gm
The phantom armies marching go!
[Chorus]
Eb
And what the burning city is
Bb
That crumbles in your furnaces!
Eb
And what the burning city is
Bb F
That crumbles in your furnaces!
