Nothing Is Sound (I recieved a pre-release. I will not send it to you.)
This is quite possibly the best song on the album, and though it is easy,
pay attention to the changes. It is in standard tuning, and all the chords
are open form.
DIs this the New Year, Gor just another night'
DIs this the new fear, Gor just another fright'
GIs this the new tBmear, or just anAother desperation' D
DIs this the finger, or jGust another fist'
DIs this the kingdom, or Gjust a hit-and-miss'
GA misdirectiBmon, most of alAl this desperationBm.
DIs this what they call freedom'
AIs this what you call pain'
BmIs this what they call discontented Gfame'
DIt'll be a day like this Aone,
AWhen the world caves in,Bm when the world caves in,
Gwhen the world caves iDn
DI'm singing this one liGke a broken piece of glass
DFor broken arms and broken Gnoses in the back
GIs this the New YBmear, or just anAother desperation'Bm G
DYou push until you're shovinAg
AYou bend until you break,
BmDo you stand on the broken fGield where your fathers lay'
DIt'll be a day like this Aone,
AWhen the world caves in,Bm when the world caves in,
Gwhen the world caves inD
AWhen the world caves inBm, G
Gwhen the world caves inD, A
Awhen the world caves inA Bm G
DThere's nothing here worth savinAg,
AThere's no one here at all
BmIs there any net left that Gcould break our fall'
DIt'll be a day like this Aone
AWhen the sky falls downBm,
Bmwhen the hungry and Gpoor and deserted are founDd.
DAre you discontented' A
AHave you been pushing harBmd'
BmHave you been throwing Gdown this broken house of cards'
DIt'll be a day like this Aone,
AWhen the world caves in, Bmwhen the world caves in,
Gwhen the world caves inD G D G
DIs there nothing left now' Nothing lefGt to sing'
DAre there any left who haven't kissed the eneGmy'
GIs this the New YBmear, or just anAother desperation' Bm GYeah, yeah
DDoes justice ever find you' A
ADo the wicked never lose'
BmIs there any other song to sing besides these bluGes'
DAnd nothing is OAK,
ATill the world caves in,Bm till the world caves in,
Gtill the world caves in,D till the world caves in.
ATill the world caves in,Bm till the world caves in,
Gtill the world caves in,D till the world caves in.
ATill the world caves in,Bm till the world caves in,
Gtill the world caves Din,
