^Am Well this is ^Dhorror show time^G in the heart of the ^CPaci^C/Bfic ^Am The ^DFrench and the cavalry^G are dealing deadly ^Cware^C/Bs ^Am And you can ^Dstand back in anger^G or totally des^Cpair^C/B ^Am Or you can ^Draise your voices up,^G maybe move some ^Cair ^C/B ^Am

CHORUS:

^DMaybe the ^Grain will ^Cwash your tears away Into the ^Dstream with ^Emautumn leaves That ^Csome other ^C/Bspring ^C/Amay g^Grow Sometime ^Csome other ^C/Bspring ^C/Amay g^Grow ^DMaybe the ^Grain will ^Cwash your poison hands Into the ^Dopen ^Embelly of the ocean wide That ^Csome other ^C/Bchild ^C/Amay g^Grow Sometime ^Csome other ^C/Bchild ^C/Amay g^Grow

VERSE 2: There is no getting out of this - the damage is horrific And while they're tattooing chromosomes from Bikini to the Marshall Islands They make your front yard a urinal, during R&R Well this is some kind of suicide, beyond the mere bizzare CHORUS (repeat last line) ENDING:

^D ^G ^DMaybe the ^Grain, ^Dmaybe the ^Grain, ^Dmaybe the ^Grain
