[Verse 1]
[C]Aeronautical activ[F]ity is all grounded
[Am]No F16 jets no alarm sounded
[C]Not even a rumour that a
[F]terrorist downed it
[Am]Without any hint of controversy around it
[C]No police called every[F]body is
[Am]accounted
Coverup unnecessary so no
facts shrouded and
[C]Traffic grinds to halt [F]leaving
streets crowded an[Am]d
The authorities don't know nothing about it
No [C]little old ladies heard
[F]saying "oh my!"
People [Am]getting later but
not looking to know why
[C]It's like suddenly the signs [F]said
'Don't Drive'
Shouldn't [Am]someone worry the
economy will nosedive?
[C]The young and ambitious
stop [F]as life goes by
[Am]Cities that never sleep caught
with a closed eye
[C]Two year olds get ignored [F]but fail to cry
By the [Am]side of their parents
as they look up to the sky
And the [C]seas would part
and they'd [F]part for you
I'd run [Am]anywhere to join you on
a path for two and I
[C]I don't wanna contemplate
[F]what I might do
And if I [Am]lose you I'll find you,

[Verse 2]
I will find you
[C]Stop the clock[F]s I'll walk [Am]away
[C]Cos we've got som[F]ething unt[Am]amed
[C]If what's ben[F]eath falls through
[Am]Then I'll [C]fall, but I'll [F]fall [Am]with [C]you
Stop the clock[F]s I'll walk away

[Verse 3]
[Am]
[C]Cos we've got som[F]ething untamed
[Am]If w[C]hat's beneath fa[F]lls th[Am]rough
Then I'll [C]fall, but I'll [F]fall with [Am]you

[Verse 4]
[C]As if it never happened a com
[Am]puter went dead
We could fix this is what an technician
would've said
[C]Everything [Am]froze only one thing spared
E- mail spam's like cockroach eggs
[C]People sat in cinemas where
[Am]darkness [Em]glared
And analysed the blank space
[Am]like architects
[C]Systems stopped dead not
[Am]even half a step
Dogs stopped barking not cos master said
A [C]father paused reading to
[F]his daughter in [Am]bed
While a bloke stood around
looking lost in his shed
[C]Doctors watched on as their
[F]patients [Am]bled
Their patients unfazed and
intrigued by the red
For a [C]second y'all suckers
stopped [F]trying [Am]to get cred
And the West ceased pumping
Islam full of led
Yeah [C]the Goddamn world sat
[F]perched on the [Em]fence
Even [Am]analysts hadn't figured
out what it meant
[C]It's why the seas part and
they [Am]part [Em]for you
I'd ask that you [Am]join
me on a path [C]for two
I don't wanna [F]ponder as
to what I might [Am]do
And if I lose you I'll find you, I will find [C]you
Stop the clock[F]s I'll walk away

[Verse 5]
[Am]
[C]Cos we've got som[F]ething untamed
[Am]If w[C]hat's beneath[F]
falls [Am]through
Then I'll [C]fall, but [F]I'll fall with [Am]you

[Verse 6]
[C]Darling let's let[F] them sleep
[Am]Come and lay next to me
[C]Before we [F]set them free
I [Am]wanna hear your heartbeat

[Verse 7]
[C]Darling let's [F]let them sleep
[Am]Come and lay next to me
[C]Before we [F]set them free
I [Am]wanna hear your heartbeat

[Verse 8]
Fi[C]nally some downtime [Am]due
to the deadlock
Electricity is cut back
down to the bedrock
[C]Hordes watch [Am]on as
we walk by shellshocked
As if five billion waiting on a bellhop
[C]We can whisper the thi[Am]ngs that we need to
A blanket of silence surrounds
when it [F]sweeps through
The [C]world'll hold [Am]on whether
or not it agrees to
And it'll start again but
I will never [C]leave you
Darling let's [F]let them sleep

[Verse 9]
[Am]
Come and lay next to me
[C]Before we [F]set them free
I [Am]wanna hear your heartbeat

[Verse 10]
[C]Darling let's [F]let them sleep
[Am]Come and lay next to me
[C]Before we set[F] them free
I [Am]wanna hear your heartbeat
