Rush - Peaceable Kingdom: chords

Dm                   C                       Dm       C
All this time we're talking and sharing our rational view
   Dm                         C             Dm F C
A billion other voices are spreading other news

All this time we're living and trying to understand
Why a billion other choices are making their demands

E                    A
Talk of a peaceable kingdom
Talk of a time without fear
The ones we wish would listen
Are never going to hear

Chorus:
G         D/F#       A
Justice against the hanged man
Knight of Wands against the hour
Swords against the kingdom
Time against The Tower
Time against the tower

All this time we're shuffling and laying out all our cards
While a billion other dealers are slipping past our guards
All this time we're hoping and praying we all might learn
While a billion other teachers are teaching them how to burn

Dream of a Peaceable Kingdom
Dream of a time without war
The ones we wish could hear us
Have heard it all before

Chorus:
The Hermit against The Lovers
Or The Devil against The Fool
Swords against the kingdom
The Wheel against the rules

All this time we're burning like bonfires in the dark
A billion other blazes are shooting off their sparks
Every spark a drifting ember of desire
To fall upon the earth and spark another fire
To fall upon the earth and spark another...

A homeward angel on the fly
A wave toward the clearing sky
A homeward angel on the fly
A wave toward the clearing sky
A wave toward the clearing sky
