Intro: Am 

Am 
You can see the water coming out of the ground 
Dm 
You can see the foundation slipping down 
        Am 
But you can't help but wonder how long it will be 
           Dm 
Before the restless ocean comes lapping through the branches of the trees 

         F 
When the full moon pulls up a mighty tide and there's no place to run and no place to hide 
         E 
When the ghosts in the ocean turn up the sea and the waves come crashing over you and me 

             Am                   Dm 
I can see it coming, I can see it coming 
             Am                   Dm 
I can see it coming, I can see it coming 

         Am 
When the distance is the ? of the ? day (?) 

When the sun calls forth its wandering rays 
     Dm 
When all of the island has gone to rust 

And every living thing has turned to dust 

      Am 
There won't be anyone left to float your boat 

They all went to high ground while their vessels couldn't float 
     Dm 
They scream God's will but you know it's a lie 

But you own book it says, "by fire next time" 

        F 
But the golden age cracked open and there was nothing inside (?) 
E 
Cast off the ? , build a levy of lies (?) 

             Am                   Dm 
I can see it coming, I can see it coming 
             Am                   Dm 
I can see it coming, I can see it coming 

     F 
Bite down on the leather and close your eyes 
        E 
There's nothing to be done that could turn the tide 
    F 
The money in your eyes has left you blind 
       E 
You'll be the one drowning when it's swimming time 

             Am                   Dm 
I can see it coming, I can see it coming 
             Am                   Dm 
I can see it coming, I can see it coming 

Am Dm (4x)
