the Velvet Voices

By Townes Van Zandt

I'll play upon my violin

Until the mountains ring

Of lonely laughter blindly thrown

And cause an endless sark of strings

The skies are sad

They're dancin' to a silent symphony

And the velvet voices all shall join

The singingThe hall is filled to every corner

By a tinkling hint of chimes

A melody careens and crumbles

Leaving just a trace behind

A rhythm [palter and] faintly fails

The silver on its wings

And the velvet voices all shall join

The singingThe cymbals flash, the drums they crash

The trumpets rise the song

The brass beton plucks its diamonds

From a glittering wall of almost dawn

The crystal chords they slash the wind

In humble majesty

And the velvet voices all shall join

The singing
