( C#4/7 C#m7 E/B A ) 4x
C#m B6 A
When the night shows and signals grow on radios
C#m B6 A
All the strange things that come and go as early warnings
B Abm7 A
Stranded starfish have no place to hide
A F#/Bb B Ab/C C#m
Still waiting for the swollen Easter tide
C#m7/B F#/Bb F#m/A A E
Theres no point in direction, we cannot even choose a side
C#m B6 A
I took the old track, the hollow shoulder, across the water,
C#m B6 A
On the tall cliffs, they were getting older, sons and daughters,
B Abm7 A
The jaded underworld was riding high,
A F#/Bb B Ab/C C#m
And waves of steel hurled metal at the sky,
C#m7/B F#/Bb F#m/A A E
And as the nails sunk in the cloud, The rain was warm and soaked the crowd.
E B/Eb C#m
Lord, here comes the flood
B Ab/C C#m
We'll say goodbye, to flesh and blood
Ab/C C#m

If again the seas are silent in any still alive
Ab/C Ab/Bb Ab Ab/F# A
It'll be those who gave their island to survive
Am Bm C D E
Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry
C#m B6 A
When the flood calls, you have no home, you have no walls,
C#m B6 A
In the thundercrash, you're a thousand minds within a flash,
B Abm7 A
Don't be afraid to cry at what you see,
A F#/Bb B Ab/C C#m
The actor's gone, there's only you and me,
C#m7/B F#/Bb F#m/A A E
And if we break before the dawn, they'll use up what we used to be.
E B/Eb C#m
Lord, here comes the flood
B Ab/C C#m
We'll say goodbye, to flesh and blood
Ab/C C#m
If again the seas are silent in any still alive
Ab/C Ab/Bb Ab Ab/F# A
It'll be those who gave their island to survive
