Em G Am B
Come wander quietly and listen to the wind;
Em G C B Bsus2 B
Come near and listen to the sky ---------
Am Em B
Come walking high above the rolling of the sea
Am B
And watch the swallows as they fly.
2nd Verse
There is no sorrow like the murmur of their wings
There is no choir like their song
There is no power like the freedom of their flight,
While the swallows roam alone
3rd Verse
Do you hear the calling of a hundred thousand boys?
Hear the trembling in the stone?
Do you hear the angry bells ringing in the night?
Do you hear the swallows when they've flown?
Solo
4th Verse
And will the breezes blow the petals from your hand?
And will some loving ease your pain?
And will this silence drive confusion from your soul?
And will the swallows come again?
Note #1 - Theory
The song's original key off the album is in B flat minor.
Therefore the chord progression would be ....
Bflat min, Dflat, Eflat min, F
Bflat min, Dflat, Gflat, F, Fsus2, F
Eflat min, Bflat min, F, Eflat min, F - respectively.
The song is transposed to the key of Emin allowing it to be fingerpicked
at an easier location on the fretboard and with better chords.
