Verse 

Am               G           F 
I keep hearing a vicious rumor 
G                          Dm                    Em 
From the back rooms, to the alleys, to the avenues 
Am                G             F 
That you lost your sense of humor 
G                      F              C 
And the first place you look is the soles of your shoes 

     Am            G           F 
And I watch these ice fields melt into the sea 
  G             Dm          Em 
Warming you're oceans to centuries 
          Am        G      F 
Will your saline waters bring you back to me? 
         G         F          C 
Oh the weight is bringing me to my knees 


[Refrão]

Dm          C       G            F 
Chemical switches thrown in the dark 
        G         Dm         C 
All it takes is a spark to begin 
    Dm            C          G          F 
And can you tell which is a one with a mark? 
       G                  Dm            C 
That Bleeds through the clothes to the skin

Verse 

Am  G  F          G            Dm        Em 
Too long I keep searching the alleys and avenues 
        Am        G        F 
But it seems I'm doing it wrong 
          G            F         C 
For I've seen neither hide nor hair of you

Bridge 

             F          C          G          F 
And it's a short short walk from pebbles to bricks 
        G             F 
From stones back to sticks 
         G 
We're lowering the boiling point 
         Dm      C          G       F 
And as time goes by, gets harder to fix 
          G      F           G           C 
It's a volatile mix, like hydrogen and oxygen

Dm          C       G            F 
Chemical switches thrown in the dark 
        G         Dm         C 
All it takes is a spark to begin
