Berrywood (Song)

Berrywood is a song written by Participant 521 in memoriam of the Berrywood Commune, an early nation of which he was a founding member. The Berrywood Commune collapsed after repeated mob incursions and player abandonment toward the end of Session 3. The song was notably performed at the end of Session 12 – though it was written earlier, no other recordings are extant besides this performance.

Lyrics and Chords

Em
Berrywood - a nation of past
B
Berrywood - fallen to the wrath
E
Berrywood - pulled out like a weed
B
Berrywood - lives on in the steed

C — — — — — — — — B
I may live in the past but I see it now:
Em — — — — — — G
a nation, fell to the spawn of hell.
C — — — — — — — — — — B
The ribbons of light cast down by the sun
Em — — — — — G
remind us that we are still one!

Berrywood - the future is here
Berrywood - lost something that’s dear
Berrywood - took one final stand
Berrywood - gave in to the land.

I may live in the past but I see it now:
a nation, fell to the spawn of hell.
Sometimes, things don’t end that well;
sometimes, things won’t rend themselves.
