[Intro]
Fmaj7 Am Em x3
Fmaj7
[Verse 1]
Well the wAmind went west, she poEured my drink,
StuFmaj7mbled neath the stars Con home
Couldn't fAmind no love from the anEgels above
Nor the Fmaj7devil down below C
ThrAmough all the sorrow, IE learned to barrow
AFmaj7 song from the blackest cCrow
Through the wAmind and the hail, we fuEmbled and failed
SFmaj7teady as we goC, sFmaj7teady as we go G
[Pre-Chorus]
And these aFmaj7mulets falling dCays
For you I'd Gsafely, SaveAm
And the Fmaj7love of the girl, she's hoClding precious peGarls,
Buried in the wAmaves, buried in the wFmaj7aves C G Am
Fmaj7 C
[Verse 2]
And the huAmrricane came, and boErrowed my name,
Fmaj7Scold when she clipped my Cwings
Neither rAmich nor the poor couldn't fEind no cure
Fmaj7For these sort of Cthings
AmWe moved along, like a beEd time song,
Fmaj7Quiet and holy anCd slow
We toAmssed our backs, we tigEhtened our straps,
SFmaj7teady as we goC, sFmaj7teady as we go E
[Chorus]
AlAmright, Fmaj7okay, nCow I knowG
Here in the hAmands of the Fmaj7hands that rColl the bones G
That waAmter, she's high, and the oGnly one who knCows E
She will swAmallow us, swaEllow us, sFmaj7wallow us whCole Fmaj7 C

[Verse 3]
Well the hAmills of gold, so haEunted now
Found cFmaj7omfort near the firelight C
All the stoAmries we told, tuErned us cold
NFmaj7othing's right G
NAmow we're lost, we're Elost in flame
Made aFmaj7 map from the power lines C
Oh the cAmity down below in the fEactory smoke
TFmaj7he words shined C
SFmaj7teady as we die G
[Pre-Chorus]
And these aFmaj7mulets falling dCays,
For you I'd Gsafely, saveAm
And the lFmaj7ove of the girl, she's hoClding precious peGarls,
Buried in the wAmaves, buried in Fmaj7 C G
