Em                                               D
   So we’re down by the pond, we’ve paid for our seats
Em                                    D                         G
to watch the Sunday special, but it’s not a show, not a show to please
G                                  D
It’s the last clump of trees still standing, in town
C                        G
waving in, silence yet a while

[Verse 2]
Em                                     D
   My cousins from Port, sailed out to space
Em                                D               G
we stood at the cliffs tilted our heads, 20 years ago
G                                         D
I still get the calls, they’re doing just fine
C                                      G
but they thin out in distortion day by day

[Chorus]
D                         Em                            C
And youuuu will always be around me, shield me from the black winds
C          G
keep me in control
D                      C                   N.C.                           G
and youuuu said you’ll guide us, guide us, guide us while we live another day

[Instrumental]
Em D x2

[Verse 3]
Em                                          D
    We shut down the west side, abandon the lake
    Em                                              D                     G
but with the 4th generation of food they said we’ll be, we’ll be safe and sound
G                                         D
I still get the calls, they’re doing just fine
C                                      G
but they thin out in distortion day by day

[Chorus]
D                         Em                            C
And youuuu will always be around me, shield me from the black winds
C          G
keep me in control
D                      C                   N.C.                           G
and youuuu said you’ll guide us, guide us, guide us while we live another day

[Interlude]
D Em C G

[Outro]
D                      C                   N.C.
and youuuu said you’ll guide us, guide us, guide us while we live another day
N.C.                         C*                                          G
in sunshine storm and thunder, I still get the calls, they’re doing just fine
D                         Em                            C
And youuuu will always be around me, shield me from the black winds
C          G
keep me in control
D                      C                                                  G
and youuuu said you’ll guide us, guide us, guide us while we live another day
