ADE
A In trouble with the dogs DE Yapping like the trogs on that tape A Getting stepped on like a baby D Maybe slept too long E Is that so wrong? A So at sunrise we moved on DE At lunch the storm had gone away A I didn't swim D But I watched the waves E While others stayed C#mD under for over an hour BmEADE While lovers hovered around the towel
CHORUS: C#mF#m We washed our mouths at the riverbed C#mD When we noticed something glowing Bm It was growing EA Things are going to change F#mC#m Hot rainfalls made of magma D melts Alaska BmEBmEAF#m And in icy Argentine they say now I've seen it all DmE Who knew? Volcanoes!
A In trouble with the gods DE We didn't always misbehave A Where the sun shine, now it's gone D Weve been waiting for so long E Now it's on. A Not that we would do ourselves in DE Funny how things work out in the end A I never learned to swim DE Now I'm wasted, I'm too old C#mD Just hold on for as long as you can BmE I'm so afraid to die
CHORUS AE The frogs, the frogs got it first AE And the birds all knew it too F#mD The worst was the worse smell on earth AE Silver and snow AE Silver and snow
C#m Don't breathe D Don't breathe A Don't breathe E Don't breathe
