"The Peaks"

DmDm     C majorC      FF
  So they came one by one,
     A minorAm    Bb majorBb
There was never any warning,
DmDm      C majorC     FF     A minorAm      Bb majorBb
Bled out the stuck pig fields like it was gonna last, long,
  DmDm     C majorC
And I saw the whole rise,
FF     A minorAm     Bb majorBb
I saw the whole thing fall, down,
  DmDm     C majorC    FF     A minorAm      Bb majorBb
And all flesh spun, a lattice of it reaching out

  DmDm    C majorC     FF       A minorAm      Bb majorBb
And Im left holding my head, looking down at every grave,
  DmDm   C majorC   FF      A minorAm     Bb majorBb
And all millennia pass just a flicker in a wave,
    DmDm     C majorC    FF     A minorAm   Bb majorBb
And Ive seen more villages burn than animals born,
  DmDm    C majorC      FF     A minorAm      Bb majorBb
Ive seen more towers come down than children grow up

DmDm      C majorC        FF
  Cross the peaks, cross the marsh
      A minorAm       Bb majorBb
Cross your fingers for the last time,
  DmDm      C majorC    FF
And pass out the blame to someone,
   A minorAm        Bb majorBb
And never stepping up, son!
DmDm    C majorC    FF      A minorAm    Bb majorBb
Nobodys asking; Why is your head bent down? So?
     DmDm    C majorC    FF       A minorAm      Bb majorBb
There’s trillions lost, Im dreaming of a different time


  DmDm    C majorC     FF       A minorAm      Bb majorBb
And Im left holding my head, looking down at every grave,
  DmDm   C majorC   FF      A minorAm     Bb majorBb
And all millennia pass just a flicker in a wave,
    DmDm     C majorC    FF     A minorAm   Bb majorBb
And Ive seen more villages burn than animals born,
  DmDm    C majorC      FF     A minorAm      Bb majorBb
Ive seen more towers come down than children grow up

  DmDm     C majorC    FF       A minorAm        Bb majorBb
And Ive seen biomass swarm, back and forth across the globe
   DmDm   C majorC     FF       A minorAm      Bb majorBb
They try all manner of things just to keep it all afloat,
     DmDm     C majorC     FF    A minorAm     Bb majorBb
And Ive seen more criminals hung than innocents walk,
   DmDm    C majorC      FF     A minorAm      Bb majorBb
Ive seen more horrors made real than dreamers wake up


DmDm     C majorC    FF     A minorAm
Come now, decider, sit down, beside me,
Bb majorBb
Tell me my world is gone.
