[Verse 1]
Ebm
Breaks your knees and leaves you so

    Bbm                               B
The sun can burn you up and wear you out

        Bbm   Db
It's an angry summer

Ebm
There's no room to smile

         Bbm                           B
When the face you make just before you cry

                      Bbm  Db  B  Db
Looks so young like a child

Your wounds are gonna heal

Life on earth will end for all conceived

                       B
And prove to be only a breath

          Db                 Bbm
A mist, a womb for what's to come

How soon forever arrives

Your wounds are gonna heal

The end is near

Grab hold of me

You're never all alone

It's an angry summer

Ebm
Don't look at the past again

    Bbm                               B
The first and last has made everything new
And you are too
