Arkey Blue

      A
Piano keys hammering down
        G                        D
Wayward strums balance a wall of sound
     A
Iron horses idle on deserted tracks
         G                                 D
Even the pope says it's the earth fightin' back

[Chorus 1]
     A                       G       D
It's alright, the worst will soon be over
               A
Let the rhythm rise like a banner
          G           D
With more sorrow than anger

A G D x 2

[Verse 2]

        A
Who now speaks of the fires that ravage towns
                G                            D
Boats cross the Arctic since glaciers melted down
          A
Turbulent rains never before seen
           G                       D
Caused the floods that washed away dreams


[Chorus 2]
     A                       G       D
It's alright, the worst will soon be over
               A
Let the rhythm rise like a banner
          G           D
With more sorrow than anger

A G D x 2

[Verse 3]
          A
Now's the time to reconcile our souls
               G                    D
With a hopeful ear turned to Muscle Shoals
                A
With a watchful eye, the story will rise above
             G                  D
The mad iron hand in the velvet glove

[Chorus 3]
     A                       G       D
It's alright, the worst will soon be over
               A
Let the rhythm rise like a banner
          G           D
With more sorrow than anger

[Chorus 4]
     A                       G       D
It's alright, the worst will soon be over
               A
Let the rhythm rise like a banner
          G           D
With more sorrow than anger
          G           D
With more sorrow than anger
