The Flood Cifras

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

                          A
Learning how to dance the rain
G                           D
There was more of them than us
                        A
Now they'll never dance again
