[Verse 1]
Am
I dig 'til my shovel tells a secret,
F
Swear to the earth that I will keep it,
G
Brush off the dirt
Am
And let my change of heart occur.
Am
Sold soon after the appraisal,
F
The hammer struck the auction table
G Am
Louder than anything I've ever heard.
[Chorus]
F G
Fault lines tremble underneath my glass house,
C Em F
But I put it out of my mind
G
Long enough to call it courage
C Em F
To live without a lifeline.
I bend the definition
G C Em F
Of faith to exonerate my blind eye,
Dm G
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.
[Verse 2]
Am
Meanwhile, my family's taking shelter,
F
The sparks send the fire down the wire,
G
A countdown begins,
Am
Until the dynamite gives in.
Am
The echo, as wide as the equator,
F G
Travels through a world of built up anger,
Am
Too late to pull itself together now.
[Chorus]
F G
Fault lines tremble underneath my glass house,
C Em F
But I put it out of my mind
G
Long enough to call it courage
C Em F
To live without a lifeline.
I bend the definition
G C Em F
Of faith to exonerate my blind eye,
Dm G
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.
[Bridge]
Am F
There was an earthquake.
C Em
There was an avalanche of change.
Am F
We were so afraid,
C G
We cried ourselves a hurricane.
Am F
There were floods,
Dm
And tidal waves over us,
Em
We folded our hands and prayed.
Am F
Like a domino,
C
These wildfires they grow and grow
G
Until a brand new world takes shape.
[Chorus]
F G
Fault lines tremble underneath my glass house,
C Em F
But I put it out of my mind
G
Long enough to call it courage
C Em F
To live without a lifeline.
I bend the definition
G C Em F
Of faith to exonerate my blind eye,
Dm G C Em F
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.
Dm G C Em F
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.
Dm Am
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.
