A E D And the lights were complicated and so we all just B A B prayed to the spirits above and below A E A that the water would never reach us in time, B A B but I had a feeling that we'd never get to 2009... Chorus: A E A Didn't want a wave but a wave was coming, yeah, D A E we didn't want to swim but the cities were sinking A E A and though we wanted to react we were too busy sleeping through D A E the ground that was shaking and the bass was thumping. D A There's a tidal wave coming so you'd better start learning to swim D A (There's a tidal wave coming so you'd better start learning) D A D E and now's as good as any as a time and place to begin... Verse Two: A E D On TV, they said the storms wouldn't last B A B but their answers didn't correlate to the questions we'd asked. A E D They said "A spark that's gone is not a spark to mourn, B A B you can't resuscitate a person who was never born." A E D So I climbed to the tallest building in town B A B to see the rain rushing in, to feel my heart breaking down A E D and as the blue sheen drew nearer I saw a window to another world, B A B strange fish I'd never seen, and in that moment I realized: A E A Didn't want a wave but a wave was coming D A E we didn't want to swim but the cities were sinking A E A and though we wanted to react we were too busy sleeping through D A E the ground that was shaking and the bass was thumping. D A There's a tidal wave coming so you'd better start learning to swim D A (There's a tidal wave coming so you'd better start learning) D A and now's as good as any as a time and place to begin... Bridge: A I should have known this was coming, yeah, D B it could not have been more obvious. A Like the flood that Noah dreamed about D B except bigger and more ominous. A I should have seen this unfolding, yeah, D B it could not have been more obvious. A Like the flood that Noah dreamed about D B except bigger and more ominous.

A E D Every passing second is a minute late, B A B every breath can escalate a hurricane. A E D And do you think we'd realize just what we'd done - B A B tore down the canvas that held up the sun? A E D We ripped down the canvas hung up above, B but what if we were created to gaze, what if we were created to gaze at the stars up above? A E D Didn't want a wave but a wave was coming, yeah, B A B we didn't want to swim but the cities were sinking A E D and though we wanted to react we were too busy sleeping through B A B the ground that was shaking and the bass was thumping.
