Em (pause)                                 Em  C  G  D  Em  C  G  D
To the sound of a heartbeat pounding away

Em (pause)                                 Em  C  G  D  Em  C  G  D
To the rhythm of the awful rusted machines

A                              G
We toss and turn but don't sleep

A
Each breath we take makes us thieves

C
Like causes without rebels

D                  (pause)
Just talk but promise nothing else
[Chorus]
Em       G                  D
We crawl on our knees for you

        A
Under a sky no longer blue

E        D                A       C
We sweat all day long for you

Em         G               D
But we sow seeds to see us through

                 A                      E
'Cause sometimes dreams just don't come true

           D                A     C
We wait to reap what we are due

Em (pause)                                 Em  C  G  D  Em  C  G  D
To the rhythm of a time bomb ticking away
Em (pause) Em C G D Em C G D And the blare of the sirens combing the streets
A                               G
Chased down like dogs we run from

A                         Bm    C
Your grasp until the sun comes up
[Chorus]
Em       G                  D
We crawl on our knees for you

        A
Under a sky no longer blue

E        D                A       C
We sweat all day long for you

Em         G               D
But we sow seeds to see us through

                 A                      E
'Cause sometimes dreams just don't come true

           D                     A                  C
Look now at what they've done to you
[Bridge]
Bm                            D
White needle's buried in the red

                             C
The engine roars and then it gives

          D
But never dies

                Em
'Cause we don't live

            Bm
We just survive

       C               D      Em
On the scraps that you throw away
[Bass Riff] (Still playable) Em G D A E D A C (x3) [Chorus]
Em            G
I won't crawl on my knees for you

D                    A
I won't believe the lies that hide the truth

E             D                  A        C
I won't sweat one more drop for you

Em                G              D
'Cause we are the rust upon your gears

           A
We are the insect in your ears

E
We crawl

D
We crawl

A          C (pause)
We crawl... all over you
[Chorus] (End version)
Em         G               D
We sow the seeds to see us through

             A
Our days are precious and so few

E      D                A     C
We all reap what we are due

Em         G             D
Under this sky no longer blue

             A
We bring the dawn long overdue

E
We crawl

D
We crawl

A          C (pause)  Em
We crawl... all over you
