[Verse]
G minorGm
The lamps now glitter down the street;
Ebmaj7Ebmaj7
Faintly sound the falling feet;
FF
And the blue even slowly falls
G minorGm
About the garden trees and walls.
G minorGm
Now in the falling of the gloom
Ebmaj7Ebmaj7
The red fire paints the empty room:
FF
And warmly on the roof it looks,
G minorGm
And flickers on the backs of books.
[Chorus]
Eb MajorEb
And what the burning city is
Bb majorBb
That crumbles in your furnaces!
Eb MajorEb
And what the burning city is
Bb majorBb FF
That crumbles in your furnaces!

[Verse]
G minorGm
Armies march by tower and spire
Ebmaj7Ebmaj7
Of cities blazing, in the fire;—
FF
Till as I gaze with staring eyes,
G minorGm
The armies fade, the lustre dies.
G minorGm
Then once again the glow returns;
Ebmaj7Ebmaj7
Again the phantom city burns;
FF
And down the red-hot valley, lo!
G minorGm
The phantom armies marching go!
[Chorus]
Eb MajorEb
And what the burning city is
Bb majorBb
That crumbles in your furnaces!
Eb MajorEb
And what the burning city is
Bb majorBb FF
That crumbles in your furnaces!
