Written by Peter Gabriel
( C#4/7 C#m7 E/B A ) 4x C#m B6 A When the night shows and signals grow on radios C#m B6 A All the strange things that come and go as early warnings B Abm7 A Stranded starfish have no place to hide A F#/Bb B Ab/C C#m Still waiting for the swollen Easter tide C#m7/B F#/Bb F#m/A A E Theres no point in direction, we cannot even choose a side C#m B6 A I took the old track, the hollow shoulder, across the water, C#m B6 A On the tall cliffs, they were getting older, sons and daughters, B Abm7 A The jaded underworld was riding high, A F#/Bb B Ab/C C#m And waves of steel hurled metal at the sky, C#m7/B F#/Bb F#m/A A E And as the nails sunk in the cloud, The rain was warm and soaked the crowd. E B/Eb C#m Lord, here comes the flood B Ab/C C#m We'll say goodbye, to flesh and blood Ab/C C#m If again the seas are silent in any still alive Ab/C Ab/Bb Ab Ab/F# A It'll be those who gave their island to survive Am Bm C D E Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry C#m B6 A When the flood calls, you have no home, you have no walls, C#m B6 A In the thundercrash, you're a thousand minds within a flash, B Abm7 A Don't be afraid to cry at what you see, A F#/Bb B Ab/C C#m The actor's gone, there's only you and me, C#m7/B F#/Bb F#m/A A E And if we break before the dawn, they'll use up what we used to be. E B/Eb C#m Lord, here comes the flood B Ab/C C#m We'll say goodbye, to flesh and blood Ab/C C#m If again the seas are silent in any still alive Ab/C Ab/Bb Ab Ab/F# A It'll be those who gave their island to survive Am Bm C D E Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry _______________________________________________________ Contribuição: Daniel Ericeira([email protected])
