Verse 1:
Am7/9 C9
When shadows fall he'll close his eyes
G9
To hear the clocks unwind,
FCGAm7/9
Powerless to leash the hands of time
Am7/9 C9G9
Kindgoms fall the earth revolves the rain will come this spring,
FCGF
and nothing he could say would change a thing
Chorus:
FCGF
Seven wonders crowed the man
CG
Knowing six are gone
DG/BC9AD
And how the great illusion lingers on
Verse 2:
Am7/9 C9G9
He can't enfold the sun or moon or wind within his hands
FCGAm7/9
But count the times he'll shout the great I am
Am7/9 C9G9
With all the while a pontiff smile, veiling his disgrace
FCGF
At never owning more than second place.
(Chorus)
(Violin Solo)

Chorus:
FCGF
Seven wonders crowed the man
CG
Knowing six are gone
DG/BC9A
And how the great illusion lingers
DG/BC9A
All the grand illusion lingers
DG/BC9AD
While the sad confusion lingers on
