F#m
I dig 'til my shovel tells a secret
D
Swear to the earth that I will keep it
E
Brush off the dirt
           F#m
And let my change of heart occur

F#m
Sold soon after the appraisal
    D
The hammer struck the auction table
E                              F#m
Louder than anything I've ever heard

D                                 E
Fault lines tremble underneath my glass house
    A               D
But I put it out of my mind
                       E
Long enough to call it courage
   A              D
To live without a lifeline

I bend the definition
E           A            D
Of faith to exonerate my blind eye
                      E
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe

F#m
Meanwhile, my family's taking shelter
    D
The sparks send the fire down the wire
  E
A countdown begins
          F#m
Until the dynamite gives in

    F#m
The echo, as wide as the equator
D                                   E
Travels through a world of built up anger
                                 F#m
Too late to pull itself together now

D                                 E
Fault lines tremble underneath my glass house
    A               D
But I put it out of my mind
                       E
Long enough to call it courage
   A              D
To live without a lifeline

I bend the definition
E           A            D
Of faith to exonerate my blind eye
                      E
'Til the sirens sound, I'm safe

F#m                D
 There was an earthquake
A  D                A         D
   There was an avalanche of change
F#m          D
 We were so afraid
A  D                     A    E
   We cried ourselves a hurricane
F#m             D
 There were floods
                A    D
And tidal waves over us
              A         D
We folded our hands and prayed
F#m         D
 Like a domino
               A        D
These wildfires grow and grow
                  A           E
Until a brand new world takes shape
