Verse 1:
F5
  Far beyond the reach
of prediction
Lies a promise of a 
             Eb5
break in the code
                F5
And the truth untold
Just before the 
black swan rises
The horizon will
         Eb5
be invisible
        F5      Eb5
As the events unfold
          C#(hold) - Fm(hold) - Eb(hold)
Unfold Oh no


Chorus 1:
C#5       F5              Eb5
  The explosion fathers away
C#5     F5
  Consequence we'll 
            Eb(hold)
take to the grave
       F5
To the grave!
Eb5          F5
Take to the grave!
Eb5          F5
Take to the grave!


Verse 2:
Far beyond the realm
of perception
Our assumptions
                 Eb5
dissipate in the flood
                 F5
And return to destroy
Everything seems
to be constant
Shifts direction and
                Eb5
divides what we know
           F5
Everything that we hold
   Eb5
So close


Chorus 2:
C#5       F5
  The explosion fathers 
 Eb5                          C#5
away (the explosion fathers away)
     F5
Consequence we'll take 
       Eb5                 C#5
to the grave (take to our graves)
       F5          Eb5
I will never anticipate 
                    C#5
(I will never anticipate)
     F5
Consequence we'll
            Eb5
take to the grave
       F5
To the grave!
Eb5          F5
Take to the grave!
Eb5          F5
Take to the grave
       Eb5
To the grave!
F5       Eb5
  To the grave!


Interlude: Fm--Eb x4


Bridge:

Yeah!
F5
  Unexpected the impact
   Eb5
of once it come
F5
  Everlasting the fall
          Eb5
that will carry on
F5
  Waiting quietly
              Eb5
be on the hexagon
F5
  To unravel the 
          Eb5
cannon bearing the one


(Repeat Chorus 2)
