A ----------------------------------------|
E ----------------------------------------|
D///           Em///
Born into a war and peace
          D///                            G D G
Forced to choose between a right and wrong

D///           Em///
Each man kills a thing he loves
    D///               G D G
For better or for worse

Em /    /    /      D
Face to face with a ragged truth
G                       A
Mixed up and torn in two
Em                   D
And turned your back on the only thing
           G                     A
That could save you from yourself


                  D///
WHERE WERE YOU HIDING
         G///
WHEN THE STORM BROKE
         D///              G D G
WHEN THE RAIN BEGAN TO FALL

Em /     /       /   D
WHEN THE THUNDER AND THE LIGHTNING STRUCK
        G             A                 D C
D
AND THE RAIN AND THE FOUR WINDS DID HOWL

D///                Em///
After all time building up
        D///
Comes inevitable knocking down

G D G
(ONE BY ONE)

D///  Em///
Come receivers, liars, gamblers
D///
Pick pocket entourage

G D G
(TWO BY TWO)

Em /    /   /    D
Selling out is a cardinal sin
G                        A
Sinning with a safety net (THREE BY THREE)
Em                       D
They say that all things come in threes
G                          A
Here comes the third degree



D (let ring)
All cards are marked
And all fates will collide

>
D///
The truth is the truth
Or the truth is surely a lie
Bm///            A///
Get back in your shelter
            G     D       G   A/ / // /
If you can't come down off the fence
Bm///        A///
And one more question
           G D G
Where were you?
G /   /    /
Where were you?





A              D
WHERE WERE YOU HIDING
         G
WHEN THE STORM BROKE
         D
WHEN THE RAIN BEGAN TO FALL
G                D   Em
WHERE WERE YOU HIDING

      D      G D G
FOUR. WINDS. HOWL.
