Allegory

[C#m]

                (VERSE 1)

[C#m]Sudden move [A]in the stars[C#m]
[C#m]Whenever I look to th[A]e skies I can get lo[E]st   [F#]
[C#m]Stand in a mirror and kn[A]ow that I am a fragment of [E]something g[F#]reater than I[Ab]
[C#m]Spicks of dust in a moon[A]beam gathering sha[E]pe and potent of gre[A]atness waiting[F#] to light

                (CHORUS)

[C#m]Even the wind[A] in the tre[E]es [F#m]is the allego[C#m]ry
[C#m]Everything th[A]at is and ever will b[E]e i[F#m]s the alleg[C#m]ory

                (VERSE 2)
[C#m]We can stand with bot[A]h feet firmly [E]on the groun[F#]d
[C#m]And let our heads get[A] lost so thoroughly [E]in the clouds [F#]
Conjure up visions of power and romance, and destinies changed In the twinkle of an eye
Stumble and fall, always searching, desperate to give some meaning to this life

                (CHORUS)

But even the wind in the trees is the allegory
Everything that is and ever will be
Is the allegory

                (BRIDGE)

[C#m]     [B]       [A]
[C#m]     [A]       [Ab]

[C#m]I see t[F#]he noo[Ab]n and the n[C#m]oon see [F#]me [Ab]
[C#m]The moon[F#] looks d[Ab]own on what I lo[C#m]ng to be[F#]        [Ab]
[C#m]There's grace in the heart and gr[A]ace in the hall
[F#]But the Grace of God is [E]over us al[A]l     [E]             [F#]                     [E]                             [C#m]

                (VERSE 3)

Sudden move in the stars
Whenever I look to the skies I can get lost
Sweat in this foundry of lies hammer my soul until it looks something more like me
Forge a chain that binds us like slaves to a dark and omninous dream

                (CHORUS)

While even the wind in the trees is the allegory
Everything that is and ever will be
Is the allegory
All that I am and all that I ever will be
This is the allegory
