C Em D D
C Em D D [1st Verse]
G5 D Felt a tremor stir beneath my breath
G5 That forecasts storms on the
D gallup poll
C Em D Woke up from the nightmare news
C Em And hoping to read a sign in the
D morning air
G5 Nothing changes here and nothing
D improves
G5 D All say my friends who just want out
C Em D And leave these troubles behind
C Em Scatter like paper in the eye of
D the storm
C Em D Documented with a silent snow
C Em D That's only heard from far away
G5 D
C Em D D [2nd Verse]
Continues after the ad
G5 D More cards in play, follow in suit
G5 Everywhere you look, you only see
D red
C Em D Wonder when to call off the race
C Em Watching a horse running down its
D last legs
C Em Just when you think it couldn't
D get much worse
C Em Watch the numbers rise on the
D death toll
C Em And the chimes of freedom flash
D and fade
C Em D Only heard from far, far away [variation]

Bm D G I hear you can't trust
G Bm D in your own
G G Now the grey is broken in the
Bm D early morn
G G And the words forming barely have
Bm D a voice
G G It's just your heart that's
Bm D G breaking without choice
G
Bm D G G
Bm D G G
Bm D G Everything you've learned
G Bm D is distorted in your head
G G Bouncing off the walls,
Bm D unraveling the thread
G G Staying up with the blue screen
Bm D glow
G G Forgetting everything you ever
Bm D G dreamed years ago
G
Bm D G G
Bm D G G
Bm D G When the dread is flowing
Bm D down my veins
G I want to tear it all down and
Bm D build it up again
G Tear it all down, build it up
Bm D G again
G
Bm D G G
Bm D G I hear your heart that's
G Bm D breaking without choice
G G I want to hear those chimes ring
Bm D G again
G Bm D G Ring again
