[D] [Gm]
[Bb]
[D] [Gm]
[G] My love has passed and how long will it last?
[Eb] Says the man with the plan [Bb] and the gun [D] in his [G] hand
He's scared but prepared, he might be as scared
[Eb] Are you still in control?
[Bb] You're safe [D] behind the wall
[G] This evening's too quiet, oh we need a real riot
[Eb] Too shaken, too [Bb] breakin', too bite [D] like a snake
[G] We're stuck in this attic, so bored and so static
[Eb] Tomorrow they'll ask [Bb] us to throw [D] off our masks
[Gm] But the storm is a-coming across the hills [F] tonight
[G] Like a [Eb] rainfall, a rain to the heart, [F] that should fight
The [Eb] storm is a-coming [Bb] across the hills tonight
[G] Like a [Eb] rainfall, a rain [F] to the heart, that [Gm] should fight
[Eb]
[Bb] [D] [Gm]
Mary's like me, she's a loser too
We [Eb] got a lock on her door [Bb] and a bat [D] on the floor
You [Gm] will know they were in and then they'll commit
[Eb] There's nothing they can say [Bb] to lead [D] them astray
[G] We still live in silence, life's [Gm] war and it's so violent
[Eb] I long for an end [Bb] and it's coming [Dm] round the bend
[G] If we live through this night and we still be alright
[Eb] We'll flee to Siam [Bb] or a bar in [D]
Amsterdam
