             Ab
The possible dream;   finale of sbr />                                   *  Eb
The moment that some call eternal,  that some call insane
               Ab   *        Db    br />Now helmets on each head,   awaiting the first led
               Ab Eb                Ab       A
The pageant is named:    the Pencil Rain


Verse 2:
The infantry stands andds out its hands
The marshall's binocularsus;  and skyward they train
They're searching the yonder blue - they look out Number Two
The heraldry of    the Pencil Rain

Verse 3:
And now hear the roar that none can ignore
The thunderous clatter of splintering wood and lives that are claimed
And none have witnessed all can speak of a nobler cause
Than perishing in    the Pencil Rain
