The Flood Cifras

[Verse 1]
D                G
Standing on the edge of forever
         Bm
At the start of whatever
                       F#m
Shouting love at the world
D                    G
Back then we were like cavemen
          Bm
But we met the moon and the stars
           F#m
Then we forgave them
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Em                G
We will meet you where the lights are
Bm           F#m
The defenders of the faith we are
Em
When the thunder turns around
         G                                Bm
They'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away
 
Em               B
You know no one dies
Em                     B
In these love drowned eyes
Em                       B
Through our love drowned eyes
                F#
We'll watch you sleep tonight
 
 
[Chorus 1]
G                      D
Although no one understood
                Bm
We were holding back the flood
                            F#m
Learning how to dance the rain
G                            D
We were holding back the flood
                           A
They said we'd never dance again
 
 
[Verse 2]
D                G
Bleeding, but none of us leaving
          Bm
Watch your mouth son
                                  F#m
Or you'll find yourself floating home
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Em              G
Here we come now on a dark star
Bm           F#m
Seeing demons, not what we are
Em                              G                               Bm
Tiny minds and eager hands will try to strike but now will end today
 
        Em        B
There's progress now
      Em              B
Where there once was none
      Em             B
Where there once was none
                     F#
Then everything came along
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 G                   D
Although no one understood
                         Bm
We were holding back the flood
                         F#m
Learning how to dance the rain
G                  D
There was more of them than us
                        A
Now they'll never dance again
 
 G                  D
Although no one understood
                           Bm
There was more of them than us
                          F#m
Learning how to dance the rain
 G                        D
We were holding back the flood
                           A
They said we'd never dance again
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Em                          G
We will meet you where the lights are
Bm                       F#m
The defendants of the faith we are
 Em                                    G                                Bm
When the thunder turns around they'll run so hard we'll tear the ground away

[Chorus 3]
 G                   D
Although no one understood
                         Bm
We were holding back the flood
                         F#m
Learning how to dance the rain
G                  D
There was more of them than us
                        A
Now they'll never dance again
 
Now they'll never dance again
