Dm
Safe under covers tonight
Gm
Your face is happy and bright
A A7
There by the old fire light
Dm Gm F A
It is warm
Dm F
But we are the darkening clouds
C Gm
We are the gathering swarm
Dm A Dm
We are, we are The storm
Bb Dm
You built your towers on back-broken Bowery sailors
F C G
On mothers and fathers still crying for their second-born
Dm
We took the keys from your jailer
Gm Bb
His body is festering torn
Dm A
'Cause we are, we are
Dm Gm
The storm
( F A7 Dm F A7 )
Dm
These bodiеs came out of the soil
Gm
Ripped out of gypsum and oil
A
All just yours to spoil
Dm Gm F A7
And dеform
Dm F
But now this old galleon rolls
C Gm
Galloping straight 'round the horn
Dm A
We are, we are
Dm
The storm
Bb Dm
So it's haul away, comrades, ropes over blistering shoulders
F C G
As the wind shakes the barley and carries on right through the corn
Dm
There'll be no forgiveness tonight
Gm Bb
Only fair Zilliah's thorn
Dm A
'Cause we are, we are
Dm
The storm
( Gm F E Dm Gm F E )
( Dm A A7 Bb )
( F D G )
( Bb C Dm Bb C )
Bb Dm
So it's haul away, comrades, ropes over blistering shoulders
F C G
As the wind shakes the barley and carries on right through the corn
Bb Dm
And we ain't gonna stop 'til we are satisfied soldiers
F C G Dm
Rich men, big men, fattened up, happy, reborn
Dm
And so the wheel comes 'round again
C Gm
And we're safe by the fire so warm
Dm A
We are, we are
Dm Gm F A Dm
The storm
