G                  F#
"I bring truth and understanding
I bring wit and wisdom fair
Precious gifts beyond compare
We can build a world of wonder
I can make you all aware
A                G
I will find you food and shelter
Show you fire to keep you warm
Through the endless winter storm
A#                A
You can live in grace and comfort
In the world that you transform"

E
The people were delighted
        D
Coming forth to claim their prize
      A
They ran to build their cities
        B     C#m
And converse among the wise

But one day the streets fell silent
Yet they knew not what was wrong
The urge to build these fine things
Seemed not to be so strong

The wise men were consulted
And the Bridge of Death was crossed
In quest of Dionysus
To find out what they had lost
