(repeats)

 Em Bm7 Em7b5 C

The sky is burning in this lonely land

 G Am Bm Bbm Am

and I kneel by the river and I feel the sand and the wind

 C G D Dm A Am (play latter part of intro) The wind from beyond the mountains  

 C G D Dm A Am

The wind from beyond the mountains  

 Em Bm7 Em7b5 C

And she comes to me in this lonely land

 G Am Bm Bbm Am And looks down from the multi-beast on which she rides- like the wind

The wind from beyond the mountains

This segment is not played during concerts, but is included on older versions of Tela:    

G Bb D(/A) Eb F 4x  

 

G Bb D Eb F

Tela was born in a vulgar crooked hut

In the shadow of Wilson's castle

G Bb D Eb F

Venomous scorn from a life of bitter toil

In the shadow of Wilson's castle

G Bb D Eb F

Glory esteem fueled by her hatred it grew

Swelling to the point where it would

Burst at the seems there was nothing she could do

(No chord,)

"Tela Tela jewel of Wilson's foul domain

Tela Tela jewel of Wilson's foul domain"

A lullaby the breezes whisper

 Em Bm7 Em7b5 C G

As I look into her eyes my frozen heart begins to thaw

 Am Bm Bbm Am  

And burns till layer after layer melts away into a pool

 C G D Dm A Am

A sky blue mirror of her eyes

 C G D Dm A Am

 Em Bm7 Em7b5 C

And my soul is made of marble but in her gaze

 G Am Bm Bbm Am

I crumble into dust and drift away on the wind

The Wind from beyond the mountains

The wind from beyond the mountains
