Earth

  Bm
I dig 'til my shovel tells a secret,
  G
Swear to the earth that I will keep 
it,
 A
Brush off the dirt
             Bm
And let my change of heart occur.
 Bm
Sold soon after the appraisal,
      G
The hammer struck the auction table
 A                            
Louder than anything I've ever 
  Bm
heard.

[Chorus]
 G                               
Fault lines tremble underneath my 
   A
glass house.
                    G
But I put it out of my mind
Continúa después del anuncio
                        A
Long enough to call it courage
                   G
To live without a lifeline.
I bend the definition
A                          G
Of faith to exonerate my blind eye.
                      A
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.

[Verse]
Bm
Meanwhile, my family's taking 
shelter.
      G
The sparks send the fire down the 
wire,
   A
A countdown begins,
           Bm
Until the dynamite gives in.
     Bm
The echo, as wide as the equator,
G                                 
Travels through a world of built 
   A
up anger
Too late to pull itself together 
Bm
now.

[Chorus]
 G                               
Fault lines tremble underneath my 
   A
glass house.
                    G
But I put it out of my mind
                        A
Long enough to call it courage
                   G
To live without a lifeline.
I bend the definition
A                          G
Of faith to exonerate my blind eye.
                      A
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.
