(intro) E G#m

E                            G#m
  Is this a mystic deep dark spell
E                       G#m             F#
  or a joke to make us come undone and yell
E                           G#m
  another blackness tries again
E                             G#m
  to bend our will behind our backs
               F#
  and hold us down til' we say
A       E        G#m       C#m
  when will this be over when
A       E       G#m      C#m
  will we be free in the end
A            E             G#m        C#m
  and in the end will the water run clear
G#m                       B                E         B
  and all the cold disappear into clearwater clear
C#m             G#m              E   B   C#m  G#m
  so deep that we can all come clean
E                             G#m
  is this a madman's time to tell
E                               G#m            F#
  to sell a fate that burns our eyes from our lives

  well I say
A       E           G#m    C#m
  when will this be over when
A       E       G#m      C#m
  will we be free in the end
A            E             G#m        C#m
  and in the end will the water run clear
G#m                     B                 E        B
  and all the sad disappear into clearwater clear
C#m             G#m              E       B
  so deep that we can all come clean

  (clearwater clear)
C#m             G#m              E      B
  so deep that we can all come clean

  (clearwater clear)
C#m             G#m              E    B   C#m   G#m  E
  so deep that we can all come clean

  (clearwater clear)
