    D             C         G          D
The battle's been lost, the war is not won

    D       C         G        D
An addled republic, a bitter refund

    D               C           G              D
The business first flat earthers licking their wounds

    D          C         G            D
The verdict is dire, the country's in ruins
[Chorus]
C           G                   D
 Providence blinked, facing the sun

C          G                D
 Where are we left to carry on

C         G        D
 Until the day is done

A7         G        D
 Until the day is done
[Verse]
         D            C      G       D
As we've written our stories to entertain

      D          C         G           D
These notions of glory and bull market gain

    D          C             G           D
The teleprompt flutters, the power surge brings

   D          C             G       D
An easy speed message falls into routine
[Chorus]
C           G                   D
 Providence blinked, facing the sun

C          G                D
 Where are we left to carry on

C          G        D
 Until the day is done

A7         G        D
 Until the day is done
[Bridge]
C        D
 A voice whispers "Son,

C           D
 The blessed vision comes."

C            G
 What have I done

            A7sus4 A7
What have I done
[Verse]
   D               C      G        D
So hold tight your babies and your guns

   D               C       G           D
Forgive us our trespasses, father and son
[Chorus]
C           G                   D
 Providence blinked, facing the sun

C          G                D
 Where are we left to carry on

C          G        D
 Until the day is done

A7         G        D
 Until the day is done

C          G        D
 Until the day is done

A7         G        D
 Until the day is done

A7         G        D
 Until the day is done
