[Intro 1]
[C][G][C][D][G][C][G]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[Am]You open your
[C]eye[D]s look a[G]round
You feel the [C]earth it wanders
[Am]Out from under your feet
[D]the[G] ground
Is not [C]firm but soft and [Am]weak like [D]skin
Under the [G]touch cannot stop [C]to falter
[Am]Now the damage is done
[D]the[G] certainties gone
[C]The spirits altered

[Verse 2]
[Chorus] [Em]And
now the angry morning
Gives [C]the early signs of warning
You must [Em]face alone the plans you make
De[D]cisions they will try to [Am]break

[Verse 3]
Our hands [Am]are tied on the [G]table
[Am]Maybe you can try at the back [G]door man
[Am]While the helpless line up
on the door[G]steps
'Cause its [D]all [Dm]they can
do [C]to try to get through
[G]All [Am]of your life you've
[D]lived in a world as [G]pure
As [C]Eden's sixth day [Am]now
all you've been [D]allowed
Is taken [G]away they will
not [C]let you be so [Am]proud
And you have [D]felt the fear
growing in[G]side
[C]Protest follows far and wide
[Am]they'll see how long[D]
It will take 'till you [G]fall from
[C]so much denied

[Verse 4]
Your [Em]soul it aches relentless from the fear
[C]That they will never guess
so un[Em]fair they
They can make you feel so [D]small
And the fear you know is real

[Outro 1]
