AG That all your secrets were drowned
AG With the pioneers who were flooded from this town
AG They packed their bags only moments too late
GD With the pounding waves crashing up against the weakened water gates
 
DGAD Dire times call for dire faces
GEm So lovely dancer call and answer
DG Trade our places in the night
EmG Were running barefoot you and I
GGD Dead lovers salivate broken hearts tessellate tonight
AG We beat them down again
AG Its no fun playing cowboy for pretend
AG We'll show them what the backs of our hands are for
A The divide is clear in the coming year the rich will take the poor
