LYRICS:
INTRO
[D] [Dmaj7] [D]  
by the t[E]ime the luminous descent of the bright star unfolds
and ta[E]blets of strangelove are shattered and b[D]ru[Dmaj7]ised[D]
by the [E]time the oleander is falling from bloom
and te[E]ars of the crocodile water the [D]su[Dmaj7]n[D]
by the [C#m]time you make up [B]your mind
[C#m] if ever you [A]do
[C#m] I hear the drums of heaven too
by the [C#m]time you make up [B]your mind
[E] if ever you [F#]do
[A] I hear the d[B]rums of heaven [C#m]too
[E] [B] [G] [D] [A] [E] [G]  
INTRO
by the [E]time paradise alley is littered with rust
and the [E]arc of dayglo is curtained in [D]gl[Dmaj7]oom[D]
by the [E]time kidney bone cities are crumbling to dust
and the [E]empires and all of the emirated [D]bu[Dmaj7]rn[D]
by the [C#m]time you make up [B]your mind
[C#m] if ever you [A]do
[C#m] I hear the drums of heaven too
by the [C#m]time you make up [B]your mind
[E] remember thi[F#]s too
[A] I hear the d[B]rums of heaven [C#m]too
[A] I hear the d[B]rums of heaven [C#m]too
[E] [B] ice on the mountain
[G] [D] wind and the dust storm
[A] [E] sails in the desert
[G] [D] it's old and exploding
[E] [B] seers and the prophets
[G] [D] dramas of heaven
[A] [E] attention groud control,
[G]there's s[D]omeone coming down, I don't know who
etc...
