G
Clap of lightning
I awaken
Em
To a foot of water standing in my basement
C/G
It started rising
It took me under
G
The flood is coming
G
This is not history
Black and white now
Em
In a perfect storm, there isn't any high ground
C/G
The end of childhood
The end of summer
G
The flood in color
[Verse 2]
G
They tried to warn me
I wouldn't listen
Em
And now all at once I'm drowning in my kitchen
C/G
My legs are broken
From treading water
G
The flood is coming
The flood is coming
G
I tried to bargain
I tried to reason
Em
But the sky was deaf and the rain was never ceasing
C/G
It's not some cheap bet
I can cover
G
The flood in color
The flood in color
[Verse 3]
G
So listen close now
I was dead wrong
Em
To think that things could work themselves out in the long run
C/G
Pay attention
Heed the thunder
G
The flood is coming
G
The flood in color
