The Flood

A
Broken people get recycled
And I hope that I will sometimes be thrown off the pathways
                          Dm
What I thought was my way home
                   A
Wasn't the place I know
I’m not afraid of changing
I'm certain nothing's certain
What we are becomes our prison
                      Dm
My possessions will be gone
                        A
Back to where they came from

F   G   Dm  Dm/Bb
Blame       no-one is to
F   G   Dm  Dm/Bb
Blame       as natural as the
F         Gm
Rain that falls
     Dm        Dm/Bb   A
Here comes the flood a-gain

A
See the rock that you hold onto
Is it gonna save you
When the earth begins to crumble
                            Dm
Why do you feel you have to hold on
                   A
Imagine if you let go

F   G   Dm  Dm/Bb
Blame       no-one is to
F   G   Dm  Dm/Bb
Blame       as natural as the
F         Gm
Rain that falls
     Dm        Dm/Bb   A
Here comes the flood a-gain

A      Dm7     F           Em7       A
Wash a-way the weight that pulls you down
Gbm      F          Dm7  Em7      A
Ride the waves that free from the dark

A
Don't trust your eyes
                D
It’s easy to be-lieve them
F
Know in your heart
     Em7                A
That you can leave your prison

Gbm
Don't trust your mind
                F
It's not always listening
Dm7
Turn on the lights
    Em7              A
And feel the ancient rhythm

A
Don't trust your eyes
                D
It’s easy to be-lieve them
F
k
Know in your heart
     Em7                A
That you can leave your prison

F   G   Dm  Dm/Bb
Blame       no-one is to
F   G   Dm  Dm/Bb

F         Gm
Rain that falls
