D (4) A (4)
Had a dream, you and me and the war at the end times
D (4) A (4)
And I believe California succumbed to the fault line. We heaved relief as scores of innocents died
Chorus 1:
G (2) D (2)
And the Andalusian tribe
G (2) D
setting the lay of Nebraska alight, until all that
A G (2)
remains is the arms of the angels
D (4) A (4)
Hetty Green, queen of supply-side bonhomie bone-drab, you know what I mean
D (4) A (4)
On the road, it’s well advised to follow your own path, in the year of the chewable Ambien tab
Chorus 2:
G (2) D (2)
And the Panamanian child
G (2) D
stands at the Dowager Empress’s side, and all that
A G (2)
remains is the arms of the angels
D A G (2)
And all that remains is the arms of the angels
D (2) G (2) D (2) G (2)
Ah-hooo, ah-hoooel, ah-hooo, ah-hooooel
Bridge:
Em (2) A (2) Em (2) A
You've receded in to loam, and they’re picking at your bones
G D (4) A (4)
We'll call home, we'll come home
D (4) A (4)
Quiet now, will we gather to conjure the rain down?
D (4) A (4)
Will we now build a civilization below ground? And I'll be crowned
The community kicked it around
Repeat Chorus 1
D A G (2)
‘Til all that remains is the arms of the angels
D (2) G (2) D (2) G (2)
Ah-hooo, ah-hoooel, ah-hooo, ah-hooooel
D (2) G (2) D (2) G (2)
Ah-hooo, ah-hoooel, ah-hooo, ah-hooooel
