------------------------------------------------------------
Intro-  Em-  Amx2
*Verse-
Emthe towers that shoulder your pride
the words you've written in stone
Amsand will cover them, sand will cover you
Emthe streets that suffer your name
your very flesh and your bones
Amsand will cover them, sand will cover you
*Chorus-
so put your Cmajfaith in more than Emsteel
don't store your Gmajtreasures up, with moth and rust
where Dmajthieves break in and steal
pull the Cmajfangs from out yoEmur heel
we Bminlive in but a shadow of the Cmajreal
*Verse-
Emstep out from time, see the Amdust of nations
Emstep out from time, hear the Gmajstars oDmajvation
*Bridge-
AmSaturn will not sleep, until the sand has made us clean
still we sEmtack our stones and bury what we Dmajcan
but it Amall will be undone, and nothing built under the sun
will ever Emstand before the endless march of Dmajsand
*Chorus-
so put your Cmajfaith in more than Emsteel
don't store your Gmajtreasures up, with moth and rust
where Dmajthieves break in and steal
pull the Cmajfangs from out yoEmur heel
we Bminlive in but a shadow of the Cmajreal
so put your Cmajfaith in more than Emsteel
don't store your Gmajtreasures up, with moth and rust
where Dmajthieves break in and steal
pull the Cmajfangs from out yoEmur heel
we Bminlive in but a shadow of the Cmajreal
*Outro-
 Em- Amx3 end On Em
