Broussards Lament

F#m      E       B               F#m
Storm it did rage on the coastal shore
              B                          F#m
Winds blew so strong then the floods came on
       E          B       F#m      B7              F#m E B F#m
People cried what took so long for help - to come along
F#m          E            B        F#m
Answers came cheap at the break of dawn
F#m                 E      B      F#m
Sound bites playin' on and on and on

[Chorus]
             B                   F#m
They told us Thursday they would come
             B                 F#m
They told us Friday they would come
E        B        E         B           F#m
Saturday came and still the dying lived on

[Verse 2]
F#m         E        B                F#m
The missing ones were lost, not to be found
              B                  F#m
They paid the cost, you let them down
        E         B      F#m        B7              F#m E B F#m
Well we said what can we do just to make - it up to you
           F#m    E         B     F#m
Oh you can try to make this up to me
F#m           E         B       F#m
All I have is lost, not much to see

[Chorus]
             B                 F#m
They told me Thursday they would come
             B                 F#m
They told me Friday they would come
E          B            E      B       F#m
Saturday's here and I'm trying find my home
       E       B     E       B         F#m
Oh the time is here, time to find my home
