 oh hell trouble is coming<br/>
 Dm  C       F          G<br/>
 out here in panic and alarm<br/>
 Dm    C      Dm            C<br/>
 black shapes gather in the distance<br/>
 Dm    C       F          G<br/>
 looks like it won't take long<br/>
 Dm          C   Dm          G<br/>
 the first drops land on the window<br/>
 Dm        C                 F         G<br/>
 the first sign that there's something wrong<br/>
 Dm      C        Dm           C        A4  A<br/>
 light rain and a head full of thunder<br/>
                         Dm  C  Dm  C<br/>
 which way, which way<br/>
 Dm  C           F        G   Dm   C   Dm   C<br/>
 two days till I get to you<br/>

 now the insects swarm<br/>
        G  D<br/>
 in the lowlands<br/>
 F                  C          Dm    Am<br/>
 fear will take the place of desire<br/>
 F                   C              G    D<br/>
 and we will fan the flames from on high<br/>
 F                     Dm   C   Dm   C<br/>
 try for heavens sake<br/>
 <br/>
 the sky fell underneath a blanket<br/>
 the sun sank as the miles went by<br/>
 sit back with your head on the pillow<br/>
 when you remember it makes you cry<br/>
 ghost cars on the freeway<br/>
 like friends that you thought you had<br/>
 one by one they are disappearing<br/>
 <br/>
 time will keep me warm<br/>
 feel my face<br/>
 now the insects swarm<br/>
 in the lowlands<br/>
 fear will take the place of desire<br/>
 F                   C              G<br/>
 and we will fan the flames from on high<br/>
