Verse 1:
G minorGm        C majorC
Came the night a mist dissolved the trees
C minorCm     G+G      A augmentedA           A minorAm Eb MajorEb G+G
And in the broken light colours fly, fading by
G+G        C majorC
Pale and cold as figures fill the glade
C minorCm     G+G       A augmentedA            G+G C majorC G+G
Grey is the web they spin, on and on, and on and on
G+G      G minorGm     C minorCm       G minorGm
Through the flame still summer lingers on
G minorGm            Eb MajorEb A augmentedA
Though her pictures soon shatter

Chorus:
G+G  D MajorD
All, always the same
     B minorBm       D MajorD
But there appears in the shades of dawning
E minorEm     G+G
Though your eyes are dim
N.C.         D MajorD
All of the pieces in the sky

Verse 2:
G minorGm        C majorC
There was once a harvest in this land
C minorCm      G+G       A augmentedA          A minorAm Eb MajorEb G+G
Reap from the turquoise sky, harlequin, harlequin
G+G          C majorC
Dancing round, three children fill the glade
C minorCm       G+G        A augmentedA                G+G C majorC G+G
Theirs was the laughter in the winding stream, and in between
G+G     G minorGm    C minorCm      G minorGm
Close your door, the picture fades again
G minorGm          Eb MajorEb  A augmentedA
From the flames in the firelight


Chorus:
G+G  D MajorD
All, always the same
     B minorBm       D MajorD
But there appears in the shades of dawning
E minorEm     G+G
Though your eyes are dim
N.C.         D MajorD
All of the pieces in the sky

G+G  D MajorD
All, all is not lost
     B minorBm       D MajorD
And light appears in the shades of dawning
E minorEm    G+G
When your eyes can see
N.C.         D MajorD
Order the pieces, put them back, put them back
