Rooks by Shearwater capo 3rd fret when the rooks were laid in piles by the sides of the road Emin crashing into the aerials tangled in the laundry lines Dmaj Emin and gathered in a field they were burned in a feathering pyre Dmaj Cmaj their cold black eyes Bmaj when the swallows fell from the eaves and the gulls from the spires Emin the starlings in millions would feed on the ground where they lie Dmaj Emin and the ambulance men said "there's nowhere to flee for your life" Dmaj Cmaj so we stay inside Bmaj and we'll sleep until the world of man is paralyzed Amin Bmaj Emin (Same chords as verse for trumpet solo) Oh the falconer awakes to the sound of the bells Emin Gmaj overhead and southbound Amin they're leaving his life Bmaj and each empty cage just rings Emin in his heart like a bell Gmaj underneath these cold stars Amin in their trembling light Bmaj and he cries "amen, Cmaj let their kingdom come tonight, Bmaj let this dream be realized."
