The Rumour Said Fire – Desolation Mr. Foe
Intro: Bm G A D 2x
Bm G A D
Waiting by the telephone / The line is singing dead majestic tones /
Bm G A D
The humor of a cigarette / Won't ease the burns of being set to go /
Pre-Chorus:
Bm
All your life you've seen it shown
G D A
in the park, in the alley, in the room where they left you alone /
Bm
With a teenage dream that's all /
G D A
Of a foreign wave / You're spitting out the letters of control /
Chorus:
Bm A D Bm
And the streets of this city will leave you to roam / Oooahaahooh
A Bm G A D
When everyone else is going back home /
Bm G A
Desolation, Mr. Foe, is running down the citadel at home /
Bm G A
The queen is jumping down the street a savage heart, it's a savage heart and it roars /
Bm
All her life she's seen it shown
G D A
in the street, in the alley, in the room where they left her alone /
Bm
With a teenage dream that's all /
G D A
Of a foreign wave / She's spitting out the letters of control /
Chorus Bm G A D 2x Oooohhhh
Bridge: 2x
Bm G A D
There on the lawn he feels unknown / I need disorder /
Bm G A D
Back in the trees he is a fool / with the sons and daughters /
Chorus
Bm A D G
They call upon science to see where the wind blows / Oooahaahooh
G A Bm
You look down and watch your hair grow /
Bm G A D
I need disorder with the sons and daughters / There by and by he turns to stone.
