D(m)
Like Icarus we flew too high
Bb C G
We flew too near the sun
D(m)
They caught us in that awful glare
Bb C G
Our hapless throats were strung
C D C D
But just before the final stroke
C G C G
They took us victims of the rope
C D C D
And cast us far beyond the deep
C G C G
To lie in never ending sleep
Intro
verse
It seems as clear as yesterday
They cast us in the deep
We lie in darkest night for good
Never ending sleep
A never ending bitter gloom
Whose darkness seldom clears
A God forsaken emptiness
Which fills our hearts with tears
Chorus
Intro
End on A Major
