          The static comes in slow
 D2                                     D9 
          You can feel it grow
 D2                                                         D9 
          Our stream of conscience flows
 D2                                           D9 
          Under the streets below
 D2                                             D9 
          The rivers made of sound
 D2                                               D9 
          Still running underground
 D2                                             D9 
          Runs like a silent flood
 D2                                             D9 
          We run as thick as blood
                                 Bb 
Can you hear it rise

Of a haunted nation
 G5                                                     D5 
We are the voice of breaking down
Can you hear me?
                                                                                     Bb5 
This is the sound of the desperation bound
By our own collision
 G5                                                     D2 
We are the voice of breaking down
 D2                                         D9 
          The static comes alive
 D2                                             D9 
          Beneath the broken skies
 D2                                                 D9 
          John Perkins said it right
 D2                                           D9 
          Love is the final fight
Interlude
