[VERSE 1]
[Em]Deep in the [A]heart of stone
The [Am]walls are cold and [B]scarred
Where the phantom, shadow [Em]figures are
Down by the [A]gates, there sang a [Am]lark [B]
[Em]She comes at the [A]break of dawn
The [Am]rays fall on her [B]dress
You know, she used to be a [Em]silhouette
Deep in the [A]heart of stone [Am] [B]
[PRE-CHORUS 1]
And [Am]everyday, she comes to say
"Look up, look at the [B]dawn"
Yes, [Am]I escaped the shadows once
I listened to His [B]Son
[CHORUS 1]
They [Em]say
Look [A]how she [Am]goes
[B]She gave herself [Em]away
Her [A]crown, her [Am]throne
Like a [B]fool, like a renegade
Now [Em]wasting her days and her [A]better youth
On [Am]tricks and charades, but we [B]see right through
[Em]Look [A]how she [Am]goes [B]
[VERSE 2]
[Em]Deep in the [A]heart of stone
No [Am]fire, no flame, no[B] spark
Can overtake or [Em]tame the dark
Of f[A]reedom, they're very [Am]fond
Sing along, [B]three cheers for Baby[Em]lon
She goes at the [A]break of dawn
In that [Am]same sun-golden [B]dress
You know, she's waiting for the [Em]silhouette
Then [A]sang the nighting[Am]ale [B]
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
And [Am]everyday, she comes to say
"Look up, look at the [B]dawn
Yes, [Am]I escaped the darkness once
I heard and sang [B]along
But no one sang along"
[CHORUS 2]
They [Em]say
Look [A]how she [Am]goes
[B]She gave herself away [Em]
A [A]desert [Am]rose
What a [B]delusional run-away
Got [Em]stars in her hair, walks [A]on the moon
It's a [Am]moonlight mirage, but we [B]see right through
[Em]Look [A]how she [Am]goes [B]
[BRIDGE]
And [Em]down by the [A]gates, a [Am]dove
Sang with the [B]girl
And [Am]suddenly the song [B]heard the morning call
They [Em]held with their [A]eyes the [Am]dawn
And three cheers for [B]Babylon
[Am]Sounded strange as they [B]turned to say...
[CHORUS 3]
[Em]Look [A]how she [Am]goes
[B]She gave herself away [Em]
No [A]heart of [Am]stone
We've [B]been fools, we've been renegades
Now [Em]wasting our days, and the [A]better youth
On these [Am]tricks and charades, now we [B]see right through
[Em]Look [A]how she [Am]goes ([B]she gave herself away)
[Em]Look [A]how she [Am]goes [B]
[Em]Look [A]how she [Am]goes
[Em]Deep in the [A]heart of stone
The [Am]walls are cold and [B]scarred
Where the phantom, shadow [Em]figures are
Down by the [A]gates, there sang a [Am]lark [B]
[Em]She comes at the [A]break of dawn
The [Am]rays fall on her [B]dress
You know, she used to be a [Em]silhouette
Deep in the [A]heart of stone [Am] [B]
