The Waves Lyrics
by Villagers
Villagers The Waves (acoustic)
I got the chords from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch'v=_GdjFqR9RZg
Em-Esus4 = alternate between Em and Esus4
There are waves up in the diamond sky
Stronger than you and I
Im a wave, I break through the barrier reef
Cut through the carbon sea, approaching the shore
Look at the sky, look at the trees, man, its all the same to me
Look at the cars, look at the birds and all of these invented words
One bodys dying breath is anothers birth
What are you running from? What are you running from?
Sister jewelry, brother judging, you are recognized this grudge
Buried deep beneath the sands of these ridiculous demands
No time for innocence, or sitting on the fence
What are you gonna do? What are you gonna
When the waves cover the coastal plains
The tents and the cars and the trains
And the trace of honey bees sanitaries
Of well insulated dignitaries
All screaming of the memory of the human love
For anything, or anyone
Look at the birds, look at the bees, madam, its all the same to me
Look at the girls, look at the gold gathered, beat and bought and sold
One mans innocence is anothers chance
What were you thinking of? What were you thinking of?
Now please let me boil it down to this, my son
This partys getting wet, but it aint over yet
So what is it gonna be? What is it gonna be? What is it gonna be?
Just let the waves cover the coastal plains
The fear and guilt and the pain
And the trace of honey bee jealousy
Of well insulated bigotry
And if you dont agree
You better get back inside your cave
cause were all dancing with the waves
Up in the diamond sky
Stronger than you and I
Im a wave
I break through the barrier reef
Cut through the carbon sea
Approaching the shore (18x): D D/C Em G (repeat)
Last chord: D/C
