E         G     E            G  E    G G  E  G G  E 
Yesterday was a party; today it ends, 
E              G    E            G   E    G G  E  G G  E 
This is a city that breaks but never bends, 
E         G   E                    G   E    G G  E  G G  E 
Crying in the streets, get used to the sound, 
E          G  E        G      E    G G  E  G G  D 
Not enough of anything to go around.

I'm sorry Mama, I'm sorry, 
                    E      G G  E  G G  D 
We're trying, we're trying, 
D                        A 
There's someone coming tomorrow, 
                  E 
The water's still rising, 
G          E            G    D 
Though the rain's not coming down, 
         A               E    G G  E  G G  E 
No one's coming for this town.

E                G    E          G  E    G G  E  G G  E 
We're in the eye of a storm of apathy, 
E          G E               G    E    G G  E  G G  E 
Soon to be replaced by a new tragedy, 
E               G  E                 G    E    G G  E  G G  D 
These old walls dissolve at the slightest touch, 
E              G       E           G  E    G G  E  G G  D 
Just add water and the houses turn to dust.

We're trying, we're trying, 
D                        A 
There's someone coming tomorrow, 
                  E 
The water's still rising,

Though the rain's not coming down, 
         A               E    G G  E  G G  E 
No one's coming for this town.
