Chords with lyrics

A minorAm
Love bird, you flew into my window
  E MajorE
Now in the sticky love nest sits a widow
A minorAm
The tree it fell on all the people
  E MajorE
Who gathered there to watch it topple

Am-E-Am-E

A minorAm
Now turn around, it's burning down
  DmDm
The city we live in
C majorC
Should we mobilize?
C majorC
Take them by surprise?
FF          E MajorE
Let them have their way with us?

A minorAm
Wounds be by old enemies
DmDm
Broke my heart to see
C majorC
Foundations ripped apart
C majorC
And investments fade away
FF            E MajorE
I guess we got off to a bad start

C majorC
No oxygen
      A minorAm
What is the outcome?
    FF
Hungry humans
       G+G
We've got to enslave them

C majorC
We'll burn those bridges
    A minorAm
When we come to them
          FF
I'm not just their leader
     G+G
I'm also one of them

A minorAm
The food supply has been depleted
  E MajorE
The river's run dry just when it was needed
  A minorAm
The rats come out to take it over
E MajorE
Singing, squeaking, "We built this city"

A minorAm
It's hard to breathe
A minorAm
But we couldn't leave
DmDm
Nowhere left to go
C majorC
Almost everybody died
C majorC
Drank the tears from those who cried
  FF         E MajorE
We shriveled from the sodium

A minorAm
And a map was found with an X on it
  DmDm
So we followed it there
  C majorC
And what did we find
C majorC
An underground design
   FF       E MajorE
As we entered in to our surprise

C majorC
Oxygen
      A minorAm
Rivers and playgrounds
         FF
The ancients just stayed down
          G+G
They never stopped moving

C majorC
We stumbled towards them
            A minorAm
But they locked all the barn doors
         FF
So we had to dig deeper
       G+G
We had to dig deeper

A minorAm
And the deep was dark
         E MajorE
I wanted to sleep forever
E MajorE
Wake up later, maybe never
  A minorAm
We had to build a civilization
    E MajorE
Let the planet focus on the planet's rotation

A minorAm
We tried, we tried
A minorAm
We really tried
DmDm
But no one could do it
C majorC
Not really alive
C majorC
Never learned how to survive
    FF      E MajorE
We were humans being useless

C majorC
No oxygen
      A minorAm
What is the outcome?
    FF
Hungry humans
       G+G
We've got to enslave them

C majorC
We'll burn those bridges
    A minorAm
When we come to them
          FF
I'm not just their leader
     G+G
I'm also one of them

A minorAm    C majorC
We fade into oblivion
C majorC      FF     DmDm        E MajorE
No traces of civilized living eating the earth
C majorC
We're fading to oblivion
       C majorC     FF   DmDm    E MajorE
No traces of civilized living eaten by earth
