The Flood
Capo VI

C   G   Am   F   C   G   C

C    G         Am     F
Here comes the flood again
C        G             Am     F
Watch it fall from the sky
C       G               Am           F
Feel it soak through my flesh and my blood
C       G          C
Feel it burn in my eyes

           F        C          G
When I say how much more can I take?
           F              C
I know the water’s rising up,
          G               Am
watch the waves crest and break
                F        C     G
And though I’ve made not but a sound
                  F    C   G
I fear that I may dr...o...own
                  C     G
I fear that I may drown

Am   F   C   G   C


C    G         Am    F
Here comes the wind again
C         G           Am   F
Cold that cuts to the bone
C       G             Am           F
Pack my bags and I’ll head out the door
C      G        C
Here I am on my own

           F        C          G
When I say how much more can I stand?
          F                 C
I know my walls are falling down;
           G                   Am
I left the rocks and chose the sand
                F      C       G
And though I’ve no one left to blame
                     F   C   G
Still, I cursed your n...a...ame...
              F    C   G   Am
I cursed your name
 
F   C   G 
F   C   G   Am
F   C   G


C  G       Am   F
So now the en...d...
C         G            Am   F
What I’ve been running from
C           G          Am          F
Though I’ve tried I cannot lift my head
C        G      C
Oh, what have I become?

           F        C          G
When I say how much more can I take?
          F               C
I know my time is running short,
     G               Am
I am broken and I’ll break
                F      C       G
And though I’ve worn myself so thin
                F   C   G
I’m coming home a...g...ain...


             F      C       G
And though I do not know my heart
               F               C
Well, I know myself down to my bones,
          G                  Am
but if my bones should come apart
               F       C       G
Then I’ll have nothing left to give
                   F   C   G   Am
But if you take me in
                F   C   G
I’m coming home a...g...ain...
               F    C   G   Am
If you take me in,
                F   C   G
I’m coming home a...g...ain...

C   G   Am   F
