[A]
[C#m] [E]
[C#m] When [B] the night shows, [E] signals grow on radios
[C#m] All the [B] strange things, they come and go
[E] There's early [B] warnings, stranded starfish [A] have no place to hide
Still [A#] waiting for the [B] swollen Easter [C#m] tide
There's [B] no point in direction, we cannot [A] even choose [E] a side
I [C#m] took the [B] old track, [A] the hollow shoulder, crossed the waters
[C#m] On the tall cliffs, [A] they were getting older
Sons and [B] daughters, the jaded [G#m] underworld was [A] riding high
Waves of [B] steel, of metal, at the [C#m] sky
[B] And as the neon sunk in the cloud, the [A] rain was warm and soaked [E] the crowd
Run!
Here [B] comes the [C#m] flood, [B] we'll say goodbye, [C] we'll [C#m] miss you flood
[G#] If again, the [D#m] sea is in [C#m] silence, your name is still alive
[C] It'll be those who gave you [F#] [A] islands, who survived
Rainbows, [C] [E] you're running dry
[C#m] When the [B] flood comes, you [A] have no home, you have no warmth
[C#m] In the thunder crash, [A] a thousand minds within a flash
[B] Don't be afraid [G#m] to [A] cry about your sea
The actors gone, there's [C] only [C#m] you and me
[B] And if we break before the dawn, they'll use [A] up what we used [E] to be
Run!
[B] Here comes the [C#m] flood, we'll say goodbye, [C] the flesh [C#m] of blood
[G#] If again, the sea is in [C#m] silence, your name is still alive
It'll be [G#] those who gave you islands, [A] who survived Run!
