[Intro]
[Dm] [G] [Dm] [G] [Dm] [G] [D5]
[D5]
They say there's an underground river,
That none of us can see,
And it flows through winding tunnels,
[F] [G] [D5]
On its way to a tide-less sea.
[D5]
And across that sea is an island,
A paradise we are told,
Where the toils of life are forgotten,
[F] [G] [D5]
And they call it the Island of Souls.
[Bb] [C] [D]
For only a soul can go there,
[Bb] [C] [D]
A soul that's been set free,
[Bb] [C] [D]
From the confines of a working life,
[F] [G] [D]
To find eternity.
[D5]
Your old man had a cage for his pigeons,
But that's really where he kept his soul,
And when he watched them fly he would see himself,
Least that's how it was told.
[Bb] [C] [D]
But his soul was still trapped in the cage son,
[Bb] [C] [Am]
While the birds they soared to the sky,
[F] [G] [D]
But he couldn't find his own way out,
[F] [G] [D]
Least not 'til the day he died.
[D5]
Oh, a man builds a cage with the tools he is given,
His casket is sealed with a riveter's gun,
This solitary madness is where he is driven,
[F] [G] [D] [Am]
It was him who was trapped in the soul cage son.
[F] [G] [D5]
It was him that was trapped in the soul cage.
[D5]
I know that he loved you, but he hadn't the words,
He'd be easier speaking the language of birds,
For to speak of emotion, it just wasn't done,
[F] [G] [D] [Am]
It was him who was trapped in the soul cage son.
[F] [G] [D5]
It was him that was trapped in the soul cage.
[D5]
Oh, a man builds a cage with the tools he is given,
His casket is sealed with a riveter's gun,
This solitary madness is where he is driven,
[F] [G] [D] [Am]
It was him who was trapped in the soul cage son.
[F] [G] [D5]
It was him that was trapped in the soul cage.
