Capo on 3
[Verse]
Em
Nine hours passed and how long will it last
C G
said the man with the plan and a gun in his hand.
Em
He´s scared but prepared it might be as he feared
C G
are they still in control and safe behind the wall.
Em
This evening's too quiet oh we need a real riot
C G
to shake and to break and to bite like a snake.
Em
We're stuck in this attic so bored and so static
C G D
tomorrow they'll ask us to throw off our maaaaaaasks.
[Chorus]
Em C G D
But the storm is a'coming 'cross the hills tonight
Em C G D
like a vain full of rain to the hearts that should fight.
Em C G D
The storm is a'coming 'cross the hills tonight
Em C G D Em
like a vain full of rain to the heeeeaaaaarts that should fight.
[Interlude]
Em C G
Em (x2) C G D (x2)
[Verse]
Em
Mary's like me she's a loser to be
C G
got a lock on her door and a bed on the floor.
Em
They will know they will win and then they'll come in.
C G
There's nothing you could say to lead them astray.
Em
We still live in silence like sworn threats of violence.
C G
I long for an end and it's coming round the bend.
Em
If we live through this night and we'd still be allright.
C G D
We'd flee to Siam or a bar in Amsterdaaaaaam.
[Chorus]
Em C G D
But the storm is a'coming 'cross the hills tonight
Em C G D
like a vain full of rain to the hearts that should fight.
Em C G D
The storm is a'coming 'cross the hills tonight
Em C G D Em
like a vain full of rain to the heeeeaaaaarts that should fight.
[Interlude]
Em C G
Em (x2) C G D (x2)
[Chorus]
Em C G D
But the storm is a'coming 'cross the hills tonight
Em C G D
like a vain full of rain to the hearts that should fight.
Em C G D
The storm is a'coming 'cross the hills tonight
Em C G D
like a vain full of rain to the heeeeaaaaart.
Em C G D
The storm is a'coming 'cross the hills tonight
Em C G D Em
like a vain full of rain to the heeeeaaaaarts that should fight.
