King Crimson - Epitaph2 guitar tab

Em                    D                 Am              B+  B

The wall on which the prophets wrote is cracking at the seams

Upon the instruments of death the sunlight brightly gleams

When every man is torn apart with nightmares and with dreams

Will no one lay the laurel wreath as silence drowns the screams

Em                      Bm

Confusion will be my epitaph

As I walk a cracked and broken path               C                      Bm

If we make it we can all sit back and laugh but I fear tomorrow I'll be crying

Em                    D                 Am              B+  B

Between the iron gates of fate the seeds of time were sown

And watered by the deeds of those who know and who are known

Knowledge is a deadly friend when no one sets the rules  

The fate of all mankind I see is in the hands of fools  

repeat first 2 measures
