[VERSE 1]
C#m C#m7/B
When the night shows
Amaj9
the signals grow on radios
C#m7 Emaj7/B
All the strange things
Amaj9
they come and go, as early warnings
[PRE-CHORUS 1]
B E/G# Aadd9
Stranded starfish have no place to hide
Amaj7 F#7/A# B G#7/B# C#madd9
still waiting for the swollen Easter tide
B4
There's no point in direction
A#m7-5 A6 Aadd9 E
we can - not even choose a side.
[VERSE 2]
C#m7 Emaj7/B
I took the old track
B9/A
the hollow shoulder, across the waters
C#m9 E/B
On the tall cliffs
Amaj7
they were getting older, sons and daughters
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
B G#m7 Bsus4/G# Aadd9
The jaded underworld was riding high
Amaj7 F#7/A# B G#7/B# C#m
Waves of steel hurled metal at the sky
B4
and as the nail sunk in the cloud,
A#m7-5 A6 Aadd9 E
the rain was warm and soaked the crowd.
[CHORUS 1]
E Emaj7/B C#m C#m7
Lord, here comes the flood
B G#/B# C#m
We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood
G#/B#
If again the seas are silent
C#m C#m C#madd9
in a - ny still alive
G#/B# D#sus4/A# G#5 F#6 * Aadd9
It 'll be those who gave their is - land to survive
Am Bm Am/C D E
Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry.
[VERSE 3]
C#m7 Emaj7/B
When the flood calls
Amaj9
You have no home, you have no walls
C#m C#sus2 Emaj7/B
In the thun - der crash
Amaj9
You're a thousand minds, within a flash
[PRE-CHORUS 3]
B Eadd9/G# A
Don't be afraid to cry at what you see
Amaj7 F#7/A# B G#7/B# C#m
The actors gone, there's only you and me
B4
And if we break before the dawn,
A#m7-5 A6 Aadd9 E
they'll use up what we used to be.
[CHORUS 2]
E Emaj7/B C#m
Lord, here comes the flood
B G#/B# C#m
We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood
G#/B#
If again the seas are silent
C#m
in a - ny still alive
G#/B# D#sus4/A# G#5 F#6 * Aadd9
It 'll be those who gave their is - land to survive
Am Bm Am/C D E
Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry.
