Chuck Ragan - The flame in the flood

^AmIn the backwaters ^Fbeyond fables and years ^CIs freedom ^Ein moving on ^AmThere's a silence that may ^Fbe heard loud and clear ^CIn the simple, wild, and ^Enatural cadence

^FKeep my eyes opened ^CKeep my ears sharpened ^EThere's nothing to fear ^AmBut fear itself in ^FOh desperation, ^Cchasing horizons ^EIn the flame and the ^Amflood

^AmThrough the briers and the ^Fbrambles in my tears ^CThere's no failure in ^Etrue survival ^AmOr the trials and tales ^Fof old that cut me near ^CWill help keep my head ^Eabove the water

^FKeep my eyes opened ^CKeep my ears sharpened ^EThere's nothing to fear ^AmBut fear itself in ^FOh desperation, ^Cchasing horizons ^EIn the flame and the ^Amflood
