A D A fis A D A D

 A          D       A        fis
Won't you come on down the line
   D        E       A
Away from barren ground
      A     D       A    fis
The harlot and the autocrat

Are they driving you further down
E              fis       h        fis
The season's rhymes, they anchor me
   D                h
Against the raging tide

Take you to the last wild place

A caveman could a saint become
       D        E           A
In a hospital ward on the Somme
E        fis       h        fis
We can dive into distant amoebas
      D                       h   fis E fis E
Our wings could melt in the sun

I can move
        fis           h         fis  E
But I can't live without your love

But I can't live without your love

Here they come there they go
A          D      A      fis
Oh great god of development
        D       E      A
Don't really know you yet
A           D          A         fis
Coastline hosed down washed away
     D            E              A
Economics, now there's nothing left
E            fis       h           fis
Tomorrow's child takes concrete footsteps
              D                     h       D A A E
And they'll drink champagne or be damned


          D         A          E
And the storm is breaking now
           D         A          E
