TEmhere is a storm on the rise
EmThere is a sCtorm on the Emrise
And the lAmand won't ever look the Dsame aEmgain
EmI'm hearing whispers in the dark
EmI'm hearing wChispers in the dEmark
And I tAmhought I saw the devil's jDagged gEmrin
The Ckids have a riot
GOccupying Devery single waking tAmhought
CAnd in the silence
I could swear I heard the first raindrDop
EmCan you feel it in the air now?
EmCan you fCeel it in the Emair now?
There is a sAmtillness calling out for DtragedEmy
EmAnd look, the rats ain't even running
EmNo, those rCats ain't Emeven running
There ain't no Amrat ever accepted
His own Ddeath at sEmea
There are Cbelievers praying
"GSomeone save us"
DTrembling at the thunder in the Amsky
And every Clonesome prisoner
Is sounding out his tortured Dcry
There ain't a Gman carried a gun that I rDespected
Oh, and it sEmeems I should be gearing up for Cwar
There is a fGaceless enemy on the Dhorizon
And his bEmattleships float silent off the sChore
I feel the Gearth under my feet
I think she's Dholding her breath
BmFearful of what still is yet to Ccome
There is a sGwiftness in the breeze
Feels like it's rDunning
Oh, it's cEmhasing down that ever-setting Csun
C Em G D Em
There are belCievers praying
G"Please someone save us"
DTrembling at the thunder in the Amsky
And every Clonesome prisoner
Is sounding out his tortured Dcry
The Ckids have a riot
GOccupying Devery single waking tAmhought
CAnd in the silence
I could swear I heard the first raindrDop
DThere is a storm on the Emrise!
