Intro
G G/F# C2 G/F#
Verse 1
G G/F# C2 G
May your dreams be all of sun
Em7 D/F# G
and heated sand, and sky
G/E G/F# C2 G
when you wake may all your singing
G/F# G C2
help your heart to fly
G/E G/F# C2 G
May you never be closed in an amber cage
Em7 D C2
with an amber lock and key
G/E G/F# C2 G
may you roar and sing beneath the sun
G/F# G C2 Em
and the shade of the Upas tree
Verse 2
G G/F# C2 G
Bear your tiny teeth, my child
Em7 D/F# C2
the sun will fall in love with you
G/E G/F# C2 G
and teach you how to sing and roar
G/F# G C2 Em
and sting and k**l, as fathers do.
G G/F# C2 G
turn your prayer to sky and sand
Em7 D G
no matter where you fall
G/E G/F# C2 G
may the desert echoes teach you
G/F# G C2
all their secret songs
Verse 3
G/E G/F# G
My amber cage had an amber lock
Em7 D C2
and the girl had an amber key
G/E G/F# C2 G
and a manticore was bound and sore
G/F# G C2
in the city in the trees.
G G/F# C2 G
My amber cage had an amber lock
Em7 D C2
and the good girl a key of her own
G/E G/F# C2 G
she set me free with a shining smile
G/F# G C2
and far from all cages we roam
Verse 4
G G/F# C2 G
May the desert echoes hold you
Em7 D/F# G
in their ruddy paws
G/E G/F# C2 G
may your prayer be heard by sky and sand
G/F# G C2 Em
no matter where you fall
G/E G/F# C2 G
may you never be closed in an amber cage
Em7 D C2
with an amber lock and key
G/E G/F# C2 G
may you roar and sing beneath the sun
G/F# G C2 Em
and the shade of the Upas tree
