Dm     Gm              Am
In the tower above the earth
Dm         Gm                Am
There is a view that reaches far
Dm       Gm      Am
Where we see the universe
Dm   Gm           Am
I see the fire, I see the end

Dm    Gm              Am
Seven miles above the earth
Dm        Gm         Am
There is Emmanuel of mothers
Dm        Gm              Am  C 
With his sword, with his robe
Dm          Gm               Am     C 
He comes dividing man from brothers

Dm     Gm              Dm
In the tower above the earth,
               C 
we built it for Emmanuel
Dm      Gm            Am
In the powers of the earth,
             C             Dm
we wait until it rips and rips
Dm      Gm             Am
In the tower above the earth,
               C     Dm
we built it for Emmanuel
Dm     Gm            Am
Oh my mother, she betrayed us,
                          C 
but my father loved and bathed us

F        C         A#
Still I go to the deepest grave
F               C    A#
Where I go to sleep alone
