Intro: B5  F#5 G5 F#5 G5 F#5
(base horm melody goes with those chords)

Verse #1:

B5
I once knew a guy, obsessed with the afterlife

F#5                 G5        F#5      G5             F#5
Oh what a terrible day that was, he realized he'd wasted all his 

B5
Time was ticking by, and he'd been left behind
   
 F#5                G5          F#5        G5             F#5
And as the clock tick-tocked his heart did stop and everything he had was fucked


Pre-chorus/Chorus:

G5                        F#5              B5   A5    G5    F#5     G5        
And we know not what we do (Can you hear them call?)
                   F#5
Will we ever make it through?

B5 C#5     D5      B5
As they watch   us 

G5                               A5
fall from the sky to the ground to the sea
            D5                         F#5
Woe is me, woe is me, no one will save you now
G5                 A5     F#5                 B5   A5     G5    F#5
We can only look away (away!), away-way-way-way-way 
G5                A5         D5                 F#5
We'll not be victims there'll be no victims of to speak
G5            A5                   B5
And only then will we be free
G5               A5          B5
And up will rise the meek


                     D5   A5            G5
And when we fall we will fall together
B5            D5                       A5      G5
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
B5                D5      A5                G5
And where we roam we will roam forever
B5            D5       F#5                
No one will understand what we meant

Verse #2:

B5
The beaten and the bruised, forsaken, the abused
F#5                         G5          F#5    G5                 F#5                    
Oh what a glorious day we'll have rising up and claiming all our dues
B5
The day will come as sure as the ever-setting sun
F#5                     G5   F#5               G5                         F#5
All of those that self-imposed will find themselves so indisposed


Pre-chorus/Chorus:

G5                        F#5              B5   A5    G5    F#5     G5        
And we know not what we do (Can you hear them call?)
                   F#5
Will we ever make it through?

B5 C#5     D5      B5
As they watch   us 

G5                               A5
fall from the sky to the ground to the sea
            D5                         F#5
Woe is me, woe is me, no one will save you now
G5                 A5     F#5                 B5   A5     G5    F#5
We can only look away (away!), away-way-way-way-way 
G5                A5         D5                 F#5
We'll not be victims there'll be no victims of to speak
G5            A5                   B5
And only then will we be free
G5               A5          B5
And up will rise the meek


                     D5   A5            G5
And when we fall we will fall together
B5            D5                       A5      G5
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
B5                D5      A5                G5
And where we roam we will roam forever
B5            D5       F#5                
No one will understand what we meant

(In place of those brass solo's i suggest to do the intro again,
i highly doubt you own any brass instruments)

Verse #3:

B5 D5 E5         F#5                      
Now!     with the line drawn in the 
B5  D5   G5                    F#5
Wet Sand  You need to tell us where you stand
B5                  D5                        
Sitting, waiting, watching, rotting, 
E5                  F#5                  B5  D5   G5  
everything they warned us of is true
                  F#5
Now tell me what we're all supposed to do
G5                                    A5
They're coming after all of us with everything they've got
G5                        A5
With the fury of a soldier who will answer to his God
G5                    A5       F#5
So how will we fight? When all we have is logic and love on our side

Chorus:

B5                D5   A5            G5
And when we fall we will fall together
B5            D5                       A5      G5
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
B5                D5      A5                G5
And where we roam we will roam forever
B5            D5       F#5                  B5
No one will understand what we meant
