Oh people [Bm] look around [D] you, [G] the signs are [D] everywhere
You [G] left it [D] for [Am] somebody other [G] than you [A] to be the [Bm] one to care
[D] You're lost inside your houses, there's no [G] time to find you [E] now
Oh [D] you're burning [A] and your towers are turning
[Bm] I gotta leave you here [G] and try to get down to the sea [D] somehow
[A] Rock me [G] on the water, sister [D] won't you turn [A] my fever [G]
down

[G] Who have [D] no idea [C] where they [G] will go, [A] but they'll help you [Bm] if they [E] can
[Bm]
[D] Now everyone must have some dog [G] that's gonna pull them through [E]
somehow
[D] Oh the fires are raging, [A]

look among you, [G] is there your home [D] of life
There's [G] a [D] seabird above you, [C] flying [G] in one [A] place like [Bm] Jesus in the sky
We'll [D] all just [Bm] do the best we can and then [G] hang on to that [E] gospel cloud
