(NC) All the boys who called their mothers on that day C C Am C
(NC) Were no tough bunch, but they had the nerves, to go and say C C Am D

D			     C
That all your secrets were drowned
D			     C
With the pioneers who were flooded from this town
D			     C
They packed their bags only moments too late
C									C
With the pounding waves crashing up against the weakened water gates

C          C     D             C
     Dire times call for dire faces
          C               Am
So lovely dancer call and answer
          C             C
Trade our places in the night
             Am      C
Were running barefoot you and I
C                   C			C
Dead lovers salivate broken hearts tessellate tonight

(NC) And all the kids who cut their knees on that old school yard fence D G Em D
(NC) Were holding out for prosperity in self defense D G Em A

     D            C
We beat them down again
     D             C
Its no fun playing cowboy for pretend
     D                   C
We'll show them what the backs of our hands are for
                                           D
The divide is clear in the coming year the rich will take the poor

C          C     D             C
     Dire times call for dire faces
          C               Am
So lovely dancer call and answer
          C             C
Trade our places in the night
             Am      C
Were running barefoot you and I

Dead lovers salivate broken hearts tessellate tonight
