[Em]Ther[Am]e's[Em][Am][Em]
a shadow [Am]across [Em]the land

There's blood in [Am]the flem,
there's [Em]a lump in the breast
There's [B]a smell of sickness on
our [Em]breath[F][Em]
There's a dread deep [C]down
[Em]in our bones
Something is [Am]finished,
abandon [Em]your homes
Strike [B]out into the great
[Em]unkn[Am]own[Em]
But there are no new [Am]con
tinents to be [Em]found
No new frontiers [B]to cross,
[Am]no gold [Em]in the ground
Stay with [B]the books,
blessed ye be [Em]drowned[B][F][Em]

And the millions [C]who are marching

From the new [Em]lives the life
[C]boat might [G]find
