Verse 1:

G                                     C      D
I can hear the cries of the dead
G                                                     C               D
Maybe it's your neighbour beating his dog in the basement
G                                     C      D
I can hear the cries of the dead
G                                          C                    D
Muffled by the ground but still loud enough to make it out

Chorus 1:
A                       D                   G      D       A
Monkey-webs of concrete road disappear in time
A                                D                          G     D      A
Weeds and trees that grow from seed will cover us in time
G               D           A
Swallowing all of the buildings
G                        D        A
And every single piece of trash

Verse 2:

I can hear the cries of the dead
Maybe its your neighbour playing his trumpet in the basement
I can hear the cries of the dead
Muffled by the ground but still loud enough to make a sound

Chorus 2:

You went to the mountains true and painted what you saw
You came back late and hid the painting underneath our couch
and I wasn't there when you made it
But I feel like I'm there when I'm lookin' at it

Bridge:

G              ( A ) G
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
D              ( E ) D
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Verse 1:

I can hear the cries of the dead
Maybe its your neighbour beating his dog in the basement.
I can hear the cries of the dead,
Muffled by the ground but still loud enough to make it out
