Chords:
Lyrics by Jez Cunningham (confirmed to be correct by Jez personnally!). the chords are own effort though, and comments, corrections or sugestions welcome. (Chords with an * denote a few twiddles with the chords for added effect: lifting of fingers to get chord variations etc..play with it!) Capo 2Am EmMillions of mega-tons, the power of a thousand sunsAm EmFallout sky for years to come, a pyroclastic grave.Am EmWe beached the boat when it ran dry, we pleaded with each other, why?Am EmAnd in our hearts we wished wed died before we climbed aboardAm EmWell I know it is a weak defence, a lifetime of indifferenceAm EmPaid the tax and stalled the rent, I didnt rock the boat.Am EmI Ignored the pilgrim suicides, their human bombs a rising tideAm EmWith sanctions failed and trident fired they finally came for meBm Em Bm EmWhispered tales of creed and flag, nowhere to ship home the body bagsC G D*Go pay the ferryman and leave their tags rusting on the shoreAm CIm on the run my MP3 downloads global catastropheG AmLike strangeloves darkest fantasy, warheads filled the skyCNow a refugee on a Russian sub, a deal struck with little Odessan thugsG Am*How right they were to call us mugs as they waved us out to sea.(the rest follows the same chords) After 30 days of poisoned flood, the engines cracked the diesels mud Biblical tide of sweat and blood we ran the boat aground And fighting with each other, why? regretting more wed never trie in our hearts wed already died before we hit the beach Whispered tales .
