Kongos - Escape Chords

[INTRO]



[VERSE ONE]

C
Every few thousand years
Em                       D
Come true man's greatest fears
Em
All the living things
C                       G
Mother Nature brings to tears

C
When the bombs are bursting in the air
Em                                  D
And the rockets are making that red glare
Em
I'm heading down,
C                            Em                  G
Down to that good hope town, where the weather's fair


[CHORUS]

Em     D         Em   C
So why don't you come away
G             D
With me, my love
      Em
We'll do what it takes
C
I'll keep you safe

Em   D        Em      C
Why don't you stay by me
G                 C
And when the time comes
Em
We'll escape


[VERSE TWO]

C
When the big one finally hits LA
Em                       D
When Yellowstone has its day
Em
We're heading to the southern tip
C                       
On a plane or on a ship,
                  Em                  G
We'll do what it takes, we'll find a way

C
And if that cloud forms up above
Em                    D
No sign anywhere of a dove
Em
There'll be no reason left to stay
C
We'll try and live another day
     Em                        G
In a place where there's still love


[CHORUS]

Em     D              Em      C
So why don't you come away
G             D
With me, my love
      Em
We'll do what it takes
C
I'll keep you safe

Em      C     Em              C
Why don't you stay by me
G                 C
And when the time comes
Em
We'll escape
We'll escape

Em  C      D                   G
Ohhh, come away with me, we'll escape. (x4)
