[Intro]
| Bm | - |
[Verse 1]
Bm Asus2
Pour the wine and raise a cup
Asus2/Gb
Drink up, brothers,
Esus4
you know how
E Em Fsus2
And spill a drop for Orpheus
E Esus4 Bmaj7sus4/E
Wherever he is now
[Chorus]
Em Fsus2 Em
Some birds sing when the sun shines bright
Fsus2 G5
Our praise is not for them
Em Fsus2 G5
But the ones who sing in the dead of night
Fsus2 G5 Asus2
We raise our cups to them
[Verse 2]
Bm Asus2
Wherever he is wandering
Asus2/Gb Esus4
Alone upon the earth
E Em Fsus2
Let all our singing follow him
E Esus4 Bmaj7sus4/E
And bring him comfort
[Chorus]
Em Fsus2 Em
Some flowers bloom where the green grass grows
Fsus2 G5
Our praise is not for them
Em Fsus2 G5
But the ones who bloom in the bitter snow
Fsus2 G5 Asus2
We raise our cups to them
[Outro]
Fsus2 G5 Asus2
We raise our cups and drink them up
Fsus2 G5 Asus2
We raise 'em high and drink 'em dry
Fsus2 G5 Asus2
To Orpheus and all of us
Fsus2 G5 A5
Goodnight, brothers, goodnight
