Tom: Am
[Intro] Am
[Primeira Parte]
Am
Once upon a time at the foot
Of a great mountain
There was a town where the
People known as happy folk lived
Their very existence a mystery
To the rest of the world
Obscured, as it was, by great clouds
Here they played out their peaceful lives
Innocent of the litany of excessive violence
That was growing in the world below
To live in harmony with the spirit of
The mountain called Monkey was enough
[Segunda Parte]
Am E7
Then one day
F7M
Strange folk
E7
Arrived in the town
FM7 E7
They came in camouflage
A
Hidden behind dark glasses
But no one noticed them
Am E7
They only saw shadows
C
E77
You see, without the truth
F7M
To the eyes
F7M
The happy folk
Am
Were blind
Did you call me out?
Am E7 Am E7
