 FF        G+G
Nature has some new plague
     FF      G+G
To run in our streets
 FF         G+G
History some new wrinkle
    FF      G+G
We are doomed to repeat
DmDm
 Fugitives at the bedroom door
 A minorAm
Lovers pause to find an open store
 G+G
Rain is burning on the forest floor
     FF
And the red tide kisses the shore

This is not a test


Verse 2:
FF          G+G
 Stay out of the sun
     FF      G+G
It only burns my skin
FF       G+G
 Sky full of poison
    FF         G+G
And the atmosphere's too thin
Dm7Dm7
 Bless the sun, the rain no more
 A minorAm
River running like an open sore
 G+G
Black wind falling to the ocean floor
     FF
And the red tide washes ashore

Nowhere we can rest
   DmDm     C majorC
The party is disrupted by
  FF     Gm7Gm7   FF  G+G
An uninvited guest


Verse 3:
FF         G+G
 Deadline approaches
     FF     G+G
For the weary land
  FF          G+G
It used to be something
        FF          G+G
But we let it run down in our hands
 Dm7Dm7
Too late for debate, too bad to ignore
 A minorAm
Quiet rebellion leads to open war
 G+G
Bring a sea-change to the factory floor
    FF
As the red tide covers the shore
