They're Emdull in AHull
And the DIsle of B7Mull

They're Dnervous in ANorthumberland
And DDevon is down the Gdrain,
They're Ffilled with wrath
On the Bmfirth of Forth

We were Amraised in a glade of unsustainable peace
GNot many of us ever have to live on our knees

I don't wanna be Ealone so don't you get Amlost
I know a pFlace where the two of us can hGide
We can barricade the dEoor and we'd be safe inAmside
When the harsh winds bFlow and the world gets cGold

I've got the 21st cFentury survival blGues
But to tell you the trEuth I just need you
I've got the 2Am1st century survival blues
A geneGration raised up without paying its dues
CoDmmfortable enough to play around with that
Without knEowing how to survive when the lights go out
And if we tAmake away the things that they've been depending on
We'll be fGailing like children in a nursery home

Fold your hands, speak my name like a curse
Upon your pretty lips, the pressured white behind your fingertips.
And when you see me for all that I am
I couldn't make mistakes to make a difference any more.
I'd throw myself down on my knees, at your hands,
And beg you for forgiveness for my fuckups and my faults.
And maybe you'd relent and return my hope for our forever,
Lift up your precious hands, and then bring yours and mine together,
So just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather.
Just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather.

And I will Gcreep through their capillaries to the Cmmarrow of their bones
And they will Gwake to bright new mornings and then Cmwordlessly theyll knFow
That I remGain Dm
I am remCmembered F
I remGain Dm
I am reCmmembered F
So these G7 million innocents
They will Cmhave me in their blood
And when they Gdie theyll burn their bodies
Or be Cmburied in the mud
And I will Gspread through streams and rivers like a vCmirus through a host
From the Ghamlets to the cities from the Cmrivers to the coast
And from Gthere into the channel across the Cmgreat Atlantic Ocean
And ever oGnwards to the new world
Through the Cmwaters gentle motions
Until Gparts of me are part of every Cmland mass every sea
In the Grain, up on your crops and in the Cmvery air you bFreath
I reGmain Dm
I am reCmmembered F
I rGemain Dm
I am reCmmembered F
I remGain
And all the things I Dmlove will be wCmashed away in the rain F
I reGmain Dm Cm F G
DEb
Im not convDinced of the existence of these things that dont exist
Yeah by JEbewish boys with big ideas and scratches on their wrist
By a lDoving or a vengeful God
Or one who condescends
Wholl wash his haEbnds down in the mire among the misery of men
Or by Fever turning circles hanging timeless in the sky
Like a Gdream catcher distracting from the fact youre gonna die
But I pDlace one foot before the other
Confident because
I know that Ebeverything we are right now is everything that was
That Watt DTyler, Woody, Guthrie, Dostoevsky and Davy Jones
Are all disEbsolved into the ether and have crept into my bones
And all the Fcells in all the lines upon the backs of both my hands
Were once cDarved into the details of two feet upon the sand
We reGmain Dm
We are reCmmembered F
We reGmain Dm
We are reCmmembered F
We reGmain
And all the things we lDmove
Will be wCmashed away in the rain F
We reGmain Dm Cm F
