                D           E/G#       D
Whose names are engraved on tablets of stone

Who cleared the path for Presley to sing
               D/F#        E/G#       D
Who carved the path for Martin Luther King

Who did what they did and they went on their way

Man, I could tell their stories all day
 
[Verse 4]
               A            D        A
I'm falling in love with Calliope
                    A               Em               A
She don't belong to anyone, why not give her to me?
       A              Em
She's speaking to me, speaking with her eyes
              D/F#     E/G#    D
I've grown so tired of chasing lies
          D6    A/E*    A/E  Fdim7 E/F# F#m
Mother of Muses ... wherever you   are
       A/E               E6   E7 A
I've already outlived my life by far
 
[Verse 4]
          A     D             A
Mother of Muses, unleash your wrath
               A            Em          A
Things I can't see, they're blocking my path
             A       Em
Show me your wisdom, tell me my fate
         D/F#        E/G#              D
Put me upright, make me walk straight
D6        A/E*             A/E Fdim7 E/F# F#m
Forge my identity from the in- side  out
    A/E           E6      E7 A
You know what I'm talking a- bout
 
[Verse 5]
               A        D                 A
Take me to the river, release your charms
                  A             Em                 A
Let me lay down a while in your sweet, loving arms
               A   Em
Wake me, shake me, free me from sin
          D/F#     E/G#     D
Make me invisible, like the wind
D6                A/E*   A/E    Fdim7     E/F# F#m
  Got a mind that ramble, got a mind that roam
              A/E             E6   E7     A
I'm travelin' light and I'm a-slow coming home
