G+G E minorEm A minorAm B minorBm
The streets are empty, the bars and cafes too

The streetlights only changing 'cause they ain't?got?nothing better to?do
G+G E minorEm A minorAm D7D7
You say it's like Christmas when?nobody's around

When our city was still a secret before those carpetbaggers came to town

C/GC/G D/AD/A G+G G/F# Em(add11)
And the airports and train stations are full of desperate people
C/GC/G D/AD/A G+G G/F# E minorEm
Trying to convince the gate agents that not all emergencies are equal
A minorAm C minorCm G5G5 G5/E G5G5 G5/E
But no one is going anywhere soon

Inside the Safeway, it's like the Eastern Bloc

'Cause people have a way of getting crazy when they think they'll be dead in a month

But you like the silence of the wind through the trees
G+G E minorEm A minorAm D7D7
And I like walking beside you through these days of no guarantees

And National Guard is on their way to protect us from our neighbors

And everyone who's tried to swim for it has drowned out past the breakers

And the airports and train stations are full of desperate people
A minorAm C minorCm E minorEm A7A7
But no one is going anywhere soon
