Em (022000@1)                G (320003@1)There's a light beyond the sticks and stones 
         D (xx0232@1)             CPast (x32010@1)the piles of broken bones 
         G (320003@1)           FIt (133211@1)could melt a frozen heart 
                  CIf (x32010@1)it needs to be so.

(Same for rest of song)

It's the place to cut the weeds and wires 
And dodge the thorns and quills 
It's a place divides 
Divide where the river stand still

( G,C here) Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

(Back to Em,G,D.C ; G,F,C pattern)

It is time to weather stormy seas 
And suck the venom clear 
We could clean the poison veins 
And while we are here

We could shake the buzzards off our tails 
And keep the snakes at bay 
Hear the sirens fade and the thunder rumble away

(G,F, Em, C for 1st and 3rd lines here 
and G,F, C for 2nd and 4th lines)

It's the place tectonic plates will pass each other not to touch 
That's the sound of the new silent life 
It's the place where all divides divide and the rivers all stand still 
That's the sound of the new silent life
