Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]
[Dm][F][Am][F][Am][F]
[Am]Daybreak on

[Verse 1]
[Am]
the motorway to Damascus
[F]A h[Am]eavenly angel flagged me down
and [F]asked for a ride into town
For [Am]God's sake,
on the motorway to [F]Damascus
This [Am]heavenly angel, wise and pure,
[Dm]proceede[Am]d with[F] a guided tour:
[Dm]"Behold! A shining city
[G]of silver grey and white,
Of [Dm]solar- panelled rooftops
[G]glinting in the light
An[Dm]d wind- power generators turning
[G]soundlessly through [E]the night"
[Am]Mid- day on the motorway to Damas[F]cus
The [Am]heavenly angel flapped its wings and
[F]told me more excit[Am]ing [F]things
Like [Am]how one d[Dm]ay t[Am]his
motorway to [F]Damascus
Would [Am]disappear without trace,
the un[F]sustainable replaced
[Dm]"Behold! The new New Forest in four
[G]hundred shades of green
[Dm]Stretching out before us where
it [G]always should have been
A [Dm]botanical thesaurus for as [G]far as the [E]eye can
[Am]see"[F][G][Am][Dm][E][G][Am][G][Dm][G]
[Am]
Nightfall on [G]the motorway to
Damas[F]cus[G]
The [Am]heavenly angel looked at [G]me and [F]said "Well,
what's it gonna [G]be?
The [Am]long haul,
or the shorter [G]way to Damas[F]cus?[G]
[Am]Choose with care and you will [G]find that
[F]one day there will come a time
[G]When the [Dm]silhouetted [F]ruins of
the [G]crumbling cooling towers
Are [Dm]but ivy- clad [F]reminders of
[G]a long- forgotten power"
Must the [Dm]mon keys leave [F]Gibraltar's
rock and [G]ravens flee the [E]Tower
Be[F]fore we look [Dm]and see ourselves
for [G]what we [G#dim]really ar[Am]e?

[Outro 1]
