Chuck Ragan - The Flame In The Flood Chords

The intro starts with Am

Am                  F
In the backwaters beyond fables and years
    C        E
Is freedom in moving on
Am                         F
There's a silence that may be heard loud and clear
       C                E
In the simple, wild, and natural cadence

F
Keep my eyes opened
C
Keep my ears sharpened
E
There's nothing to fear
Am
But fear itself in
F               C
Oh desperation, chasing horizons
E                      Am
In the flame and the flood

Am                          F
Through the briers and the brambles in my tears
         C            E
There's no failure in true survival
Am                          F
Or the trials and tales of old that cut me near
      C                E
Will help keep my head above the water

F
Keep my eyes opened
C
Keep my ears sharpened
E
There's nothing to fear
Am
But fear itself in
F               C
Oh desperation, chasing horizons
E                      Am
In the flame and the flood
