C5                 G5         A5
Pray betray the deceased,
                 E5                        F5
such an infamous freedom , such a militant peace
                  C5                         G5        C5
How dare they distrust, do they know who we are
                   G5       A5
And Your progeny's brave,
                   E5                            F5
their tract houses waiting, pre-plucked and pre-paved
                   C5                       G5
To the ends of the Earth, wife, kids and a car 
    

    A5            G5
But oh no, no, I see them falling
 F5                  C5      F5                  C5
Let's all pray for rain, Let's all pray for rain
             G5                      F5
And all your children are reared by panic and fear
    A5                 G5                    
But what when all your fields are rotten,
 F5             C5     F5                C5
your waves of grain, amber waves of grain
          G5                 F5                              C5
And your word is yet done: Inbreed us 'till we're all the same



C5                      G5         A5
And Your collection of tongues,
                        E5                             F5
you keep framed in your parlour, with your bibles and guns,
             C5                        G5            C5
the fetus of Christ with a fistful of scars.
                   G5       A5
And your vision is clear,
                       E5                  F5
while you blind your own kind in a curtain of fear,
                          C5               G5
your words twisted skywards distracted by stars.


    A5              G5
But oh, no, no, the sky is falling.
 F5                  C5      F5                  C5
Let's all pray for rain, Let's all pray for rain.
        G5                         F5
And you pour out your prayers and weep 'cause you care.
    A5                 G5    
But what when all your fields are rotten,
 F5            C5      F5              C5
your waves of grain, amber waves of grain?
         G5                     F5                           C5
And you hide the dead while my friends head to die in your name.


 C5                     G5        A5
And This playground is yours
                   E5                  F5
spoke God when you met, behind closed doors.
             C5                        G5             C5
Gesture your hand and the pawns shall subside
                    G5           A5
And though you play alone,
              E5                     F5
you never get lonely, you never get bored.
            C5                         G5
Who needs a friend when God's on your side?


    A5            G5
But oh, no, no, I see them falling.
 F5                  C5      F5                  C5
Let's all pray for rain, Let's all pray for rain.
             G5                      F5
And even I can't pretend we're not near the end.
    A5                 G5    
But what when all your fields are rotten,
 F5              C5     F5               C5            
your waves of grain, amber waves of grain?
           G5             F5                                C5
When your days are done, I hope you've had fun with your game.


 C5                   G5         A5
And you accepted as fact:
                E5                       F5
Behold a white horse, with you on it's back,
               C5                          G5        C5
a bow in your hand, a crown through your hair.
                     G5         A5
And the oceans shall rise
                  E5                   F5
and slap on the shores of mountainsides.
                    C5                 G5
Great waves of progress shall wet the air.


    A5               G5
But oh, no, no, the sky is falling.
 F5                  C5    F5                   C5
Let's all pray for rain, Let's all pray for rain.
        G5                           F5
And you fools in the back with your heads in your hats,
    A5                 G5       
But what when all your fields are rotten,
 F5              C5    F5                C5
your waves of grain, amber waves of grain?
        G5                   F5                               C5 
And my words won't be done, they'll never be done 'till the end.
