D* = Dadd4add9/A [Intro] G D/F# Em D* C/G x2 [Verse]
    G        D/F#
The water is coming

Em           D*            C/G   Cmaj7/G
Will we hold back the rising tide?

    G        D/F#
The water is coming

Em        D*     C/G   Cmaj7/G
Can we survive mankind?

G          D/F#
Pray for redemption

Em                   D*           C/G       Cmaj7/G
Gnash your teeth and gnaw it off at the bone

    G       D/F#
You keep on knocking

Em                    D*         C/G   Cmaj7/G
Turn your back, there ain't no one home
[Chorus]
       D*
Because you will not care for me

Em             C/G  Cmaj7/G
So, I will not care for you

   D*
Is this who we hope to be?

Em                       C/G    Cmaj7/G
Living in our midnight's blackest doom

D*
Old heavens without a star

Em           C/G  Cmaj7/G
All desires falling away

D*
Off with the beggar's head

Em          C/G Cmaj7/G
Is this the fate we face?
[Interlude] G D/F# Em D* C/G x2 [Verse]
    G          D/F#
The moon began falling

Em                D*          C/G  Cmaj7/G
Crashing straight down from the sky

   G             D/F#
My skin started crawling

Em                D*           C/G    Cmaj7/G
Venomous thoughts tearing up my insides

G         D/F#
Flame of suspicion

Em           D*              C/G  Cmaj7/G
Burning wild all through the night

         G        D/F#
That the water is coming

    Em          D*         C/G  Cmaj7/G
And we will not survive mankind
[Chorus]
        D*
Because you will not care for me

Em             C/G  Cmaj7/G
So, I will not care for you

   D*
Is this who we hope to be?

Em                       C/G    Cmaj7/G
Living in our midnight's blackest doom

D*
Old heavens without a star

Em           C/G  Cmaj7/G
All desires falling away

D*
Off with the beggar's head

Em          C/G Cmaj7/G
Is this the fate we face?

      D*
Cause you will not care for me

Em             C/G  Cmaj7/G
So, I will not care for you

D*
You will not care for me

Em            C/G  
But what if I care?
[Outro] D* Em C/G
