Capo on 2
(NC) All the boys who called their mothers on that day D G Em D
(NC) Were no tough bunch, but they had the nerves, to go and say D G Em A
A G
That all your secrets were drowned
A G
With the pioneers who were flooded from this town
A G
They packed their bags only moments too late
G D
With the pounding waves crashing up against the weakened water gates
D G A D
Dire times call for dire faces
G Em
So lovely dancer call and answer
D G
Trade our places in the night
Em G
Were running barefoot you and I
G G D
Dead lovers salivate broken hearts tessellate tonight
(NC) And all the kids who cut their knees on that old school yard fence D G Em D
(NC) Were holding out for prosperity in self defense D G Em A
A G
We beat them down again
A G
Its no fun playing cowboy for pretend
A G
We'll show them what the backs of our hands are for

The divide is clear in the coming year the rich will take the poor
D G A D
Dire times call for dire faces
G Em
So lovely dancer call and answer
D G
Trade our places in the night
Em G
Were running barefoot you and I
G G
Dead lovers salivate broken hearts tessellate tonight
