[Verse 1]
A D C#m
Where are all the pretty places?
Bm
Where did they go?
A D C#m
Torn down by all the lonely faces
Bm
For something to hold
[Chorus]
E C#m Bm
Flat and static paved in progress name
E D A
What will all our little children say?
C#m Bm
When the only place to play
E
Is in the dirty rain
[Verse 2]
A D C#m
Poison river muddy water
Bm
A dead man's fall
A D C#m
Plastic people stacked in towers
Bm
With nowhere to go
[Chorus]
E C#m Bm
Sun will fill with ice and concrete grey
E D A
Cold and dark go on for days and days
C#m Bm
Till the only thing that remains
E
Is the dirty rain
[Bridge]
F#m A E
Nothing's really ever gold anymore
Bm D E
Nothing shines like it did before
F#m A E
Nothing's really ever gold anymore
Bm D E
Nothing shines like it did before
[Solo]
A, D, C#m, Bm (x4)
[Chorus]
E C#m B#m
Flat and static paved in progress name
E D A
What will all our little children say?
C#m Bm
When the only place to play
E
Is in the dirty rain
A D C#m Bm A D C#m Bm
The dirty rain
