E/B
A
Dbm
When the night
Abm/B
shows and
A
signals grow on radios
D
All the strange
Abm/B
things that
A
come and go as early warnings
B
Stranded starfish
B/Ab
have no
A
place to hide
Still
A
waiting
Gb/Bb
for the
B
swollen
Ab/C
Easter
Dbm
tide
Theres
Dbm7/B
no point in direction, we
Gb/Bb
cannot
Gbm/A
even
A
choose a
E
side
I took the old track, the hollow shoulder, across the water,
On the tall cliffs, they were getting older, sons and daughters,
The jaded underworld was riding high,
And waves of steel hurled metal at the sky,
And as the nails sunk in the cloud,
The rain was warm and soaked the crowd.
chorus:
Chorus
E
Lord, here
B/Eb
comes the
Dbm
flood
We'll
B
say goodbye,
Ab/C
to flesh and
Dbm
blood
If
Ab/C
again the seas are silent in
Dbm
any still alive
Ab/C
It'll be
Ab/Bb
those who
Ab
gave their
Ab/Gb
island
A
to survive
Drink
Am
up,
Bm
C
dreamers,
D
you're
E
running dry
When the flood call, you have no home, you have no walls,
In the thundercrash, you're a thousand minds within a flash,
Don't be afraid to cry at what you see,
The actor's gone, there's only you and me,
And if we break before the dawn, they'll use up what we used to be.
