Capo 4th fret
I F#mdig 'til my shovel tells a secret,
DSwear to the earth that I will keep it,
EBrush off the dirt
And let my F#mchange of heart occur.
F#mSold soon after the appraisal,
The Dhammer struck the auction table
ELouder than anything I've ever F#mheard.
DFault lines tremble underneath my Eglass house,
But AI put it out of Dmy mind
Long enough to call it Ecourage
To Alive without a Dlifeline.
I bend the definition
EOf faith to Aexonerate my Dblind eye,
'Til the sirens sound, EI'm safe.
F#mMeanwhile, my family's taking shelter,
The Dsparks send the fire down the wire,
A Ecountdown begins,
Until the F#mdynamite gives in.
The F#mecho, as wide as the equator,
DTravels through a world of built up Eanger,
Too late to pull itself together F#mnow.
DFault lines tremble underneath my Eglass house,
But AI put it out of Dmy mind
Long enough to call it Ecourage
To Alive without a Dlifeline.
I bend the definition
EOf faith to Aexonerate my Dblind eye,
'Til the sirens sound, EI'm safe.
 F#mThere was an earthDquake.
  A   DThere was an avaAlanche of Dchange.
 F#mWe were so aDfraid,
  A   DWe cried ourselves a AhurriEcane.
 F#mThere were flooDds,
And tidal waves Aover Dus,
We folded our Ahands and Dprayed.
 F#mLike a domiDno,
These wildfires Agrow and Dgrow
Until a brand new Aworld takes Eshape.
E C#m D E
DFault lines tremble underneath my Eglass house,
But AI put it out of Dmy mind
Long enough to call it Ecourage
To Alive without a Dlifeline.
I bend the definition
EOf faith to Aexonerate my Dblind eye,
'Til the sirens sound, EI'm safe.A  
D'Til the sirens sound, EI'm safe.A  
D'Til the sirens sound, EI'm safe.A

F#m

I dig 'til my shovel tells a secret,

Swear to the earth that I will keep it,

Brush off the dirt

Sold soon after the appraisal,

The hammer struck the auction table

E F#m

Louder than anything I've ever heard.

D E

Fault lines tremble underneath my glass house,

But I put it out of my mind

Long enough to call it courage

To live without a lifeline.

I bend the definition

E A D

Of faith to exonerate my blind eye,

'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe.

Meanwhile, my family's taking shelter,

The sparks send the fire down the wire,

A countdown begins,

Until the dynamite gives in.

The echo, as wide as the equator,

Travels through a world of built up anger,

F#m

Too late to pull itself together now.

Like a domino,

These wildfires grow and grow

Until a brand new world takes shape.
