Sturdy and bright, oh giver of life, are you witless or wise?

Verse 2: (use verse 1 chords)
Chasing the cars down around marble arch, a memory to far
Once lost in your eyes now caught between thighs
Should we ask for the bill?

Never did get to the edge, never jumped no my life carried on
Flags flying high weary patient may rise
I don�t think so no

Verse 3: (use verse 1 chords)
Should I give you my head? My kidney, my bed?
Should I run far way
Those ghost in your eyes, well they cry when you smile
And it�s hard to be near

Chorus 3: (use chorus 1 chords)
Tenements fell from the skies, when love lights fell from your eyes
Flags flying high, weary patient may rise
I don�t think so no
I don�t think so no
I don�t think so at all, not at all, not at all
