[Intro] D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 x2 [Verse 1]
C            Em     C               Em
 The breakers roar   On an unseen shore

F                   Am           F         Am
  In the teeth of a hurricane   Oh, we struggle in vain

C            Em     C               Em
  A hellish night    A ghostly light

F                      Am           F            Am             G
  Appears through the driving rain  Salvation in a human chain
[Chorus]
F                  Am                        Em        G                     F
All I know is that sometimes you have to be wary Of a miracle too good to be true

                   Am                        Em            G                             F
All I know is that sometimes the truth is contrary   Everything in life you thought you knew

                   Am                        Em         G                         
All I know is that sometimes you have to be wary 'Cause sometimes the target is you
[Instrumental] D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 x2 [Verse 2]
C            Em     C               Em
Driven aground       With that awful sound

F               Am                  F      Am
Drowned by the cheer from the shore Oh we wonder what for

C             Em    C                    Em
The people swarm   Through the darkening storm

F               Am                F                       Am               G
Gather everything they can score  'Til their backs won't bear any more
[Chorus]
F                  Am                        Em        G                     F

  The breaker's roar On an unseen shore, In the teeth of an icy grave, In the teeth of an icy grave 

Em                                        C           D            Em        
  the human chain Leaves a bloody stain, Washed away in the pounding waves, Washed 

C           D         Em 
away in the pounding waves
[Chorus]
F                  Am                        Em        G                     F

All I know is that memory can be too much to carry striking down like a bolt from the blue
