[Intro] Em D C Em D C Em C G D Em C D Em [Verse 1]
        Am          C                 Em
Let the fire burn a hole through everything

           Am      C      Em      D
Leave only unidentifiable remains

        Am               C
Let the water breach the levee

    Em
Let every well run dry

          Am                 C
While the cupboards all were emptied

        Em              D
We were told to wait outside
[Pre-Chorus]
          C   Bm
We closed our eyes

              D   Em
And ran these red lights

        C            Bm
Out of ideas, out of options

       D                               Em   D
Out of answers, out of road and out of time
[Chorus]
         C                             Em   D
Is there nothing that can save us now?

         C                             Em
Is there nothing that can save us now?

       C           G
We all run, we all hide

                D                Em
But this is the not the answer

           C               G
Our mouths shut, our hands tied

            D              Em
But this is not the answer now
[Verse 2]
            Am                   C          Em
And I can't tell you that's it's gonna be okay

    Am      C                 Em            D
And anybody else that does is lying to your face (Tell Me)

   Am         C         Em
Do your bones ache like mine? (Tell me, tell me, tell me)

       Am      C         Em      D
Did we lock ourselves outside?
[Pre-Chorus]
          C                  Bm
But these roads can still be built

          D             Em
And these wrongs can be undone

      C              Bm
We no longer can sit still

                D                                Em  D
While there's a war outside that's waiting to be won
[Chorus]
         C                             Em   D
Is there nothing that can save us now?

         C                             Em
Is there nothing that can save us now?

       C           G
We all run, we all hide

                D                Em
But this is the not the answer

           C               G
Our mouths shut, our hands tied

            D              Em
But this is not the answer now
Em Em Bm Bm C C G D Em [Bridge]
                         Bm
It's only getting darker

                               C
So dark that we can't even see

                           G
The tourniquet is tied off

    D                          Em
But we've only begun to bleed

                      Bm
And everybody's tired

                                 C
Of fighting for a space to sleep

                           G
The tide is getting higher

    D                   Em
But we've only begun to bleed
Em Em D [Chorus]
              C                             Em D
(Oh) Is there nothing that can save us now?

              C
(Oh) Is there nothing that can save us now?

            Em              D
(Our mouths shut, our hands tied)

         C
Is there nothing that can save us now?

            Em              D
(Our mouths shut, our hands tied)

         C
Is there nothing that can save—

         D                        Em
Is there nothing that can save us now?
