Verse One:
A E D
As fireworks burst over the land,
B A B
I could've sworn I felt the influence of an unseen hand -
A E D
the ghost of someone else's dream,
B A B
a forgotten god stopping by to survey the scene.
A E D
And the lights were complicated and so we all just
B A B
prayed to the spirits above and below
A E A
that the water would never reach us in time,
B A B
but I had a feeling that we'd never get to 2009...
Chorus:
A E A
Didn't want a wave but a wave was coming, yeah,
D A E
we didn't want to swim but the cities were sinking
A E A
and though we wanted to react we were too busy sleeping through
D A E
the ground that was shaking and the bass was thumping.
D A
There's a tidal wave coming so you'd better start learning to swim
D A
(There's a tidal wave coming so you'd better start learning)
D A D E
and now's as good as any as a time and place to begin...
Verse Two:
A E D
On TV, they said the storms wouldn't last
B A B
but their answers didn't correlate to the questions we'd asked.
A E D
They said "A spark that's gone is not a spark to mourn,
B A B
you can't resuscitate a person who was never born."
A E D
So I climbed to the tallest building in town
B A B
to see the rain rushing in, to feel my heart breaking down
A E D
and as the blue sheen drew nearer I saw a window to another world,
B A B
strange fish I'd never seen, and in that moment I realized:
A E A
Didn't want a wave but a wave was coming
D A E
we didn't want to swim but the cities were sinking
A E A
and though we wanted to react we were too busy sleeping through
D A E
the ground that was shaking and the bass was thumping.
D A
There's a tidal wave coming so you'd better start learning to swim
D A
(There's a tidal wave coming so you'd better start learning)
D A
and now's as good as any as a time and place to begin...
Bridge:
A
I should have known this was coming, yeah,
D B
it could not have been more obvious.
A
Like the flood that Noah dreamed about
D B
except bigger and more ominous.
A
I should have seen this unfolding, yeah,
D B
it could not have been more obvious.
A
Like the flood that Noah dreamed about
D B
except bigger and more ominous.

OR you could just play A D B the same way you did during the bridge
Verse Three:
A E D
Every moment lost someone else has won,
B A B
every time you breathe there's another gone.
A E D
Every passing second is a minute late,
B A B
every breath can escalate a hurricane.
A E D
And do you think we'd realize just what we'd done -
B A B
tore down the canvas that held up the sun?
A E D
We ripped down the canvas hung up above,
B
but what if we were created to gaze, what if we were created to gaze at the
stars up above?
A E D
Didn't want a wave but a wave was coming, yeah,
B A B
we didn't want to swim but the cities were sinking
A E D
and though we wanted to react we were too busy sleeping through
B A B
the ground that was shaking and the bass was thumping.
