[Intro] Am7 Em7 G [Verse]
              Am7       Em7                G
It's not just evil that stalks the american sky

            Am7              Em7          G
But there's something that's stalking the sky oh

              Am7
It's not just bad luck

     Em7           G
It's just what can happen
Fill x1 [Verse]
                  Am7    Em7          G
I think there's a lot of good in this town

          Am7    Em7       G
I think a lot of it's unredeemed

           Am7          Em7      G
I think pretending that it's not around

               Am7     Em7    G
Will bring the shadowy talons down
[Chorus]
          Am7         Em7          G
It's been waiting for us its whole life

          Am7         Em7          G
For us to forget that look in its eye

          Am7         Em7          G
It's been waiting for us its whole life

          Am7         Em7          G
For us to forget its name

[Verse]
            Am7        Em7          G
I think forgetting its name and the sound

               Am7     Em7   G
Will bring the shadowy talons down

          Am7   Em7                G
Out of an alien silence when we're all looking down

               Am7      Em7              G
We'll feel the stopping heartbeat of this town

             Am7     Em7      G
It can bring greater circling hunters down

             Am7     Em7      G
It can bring greater circling hunters down
[Chorus]
                 Am7   Em7
If you see it as fear

       G
See it dead as fear

         Am7             Em7      G
With its wings nailed to our city gate

Am7         Em7              G
Banner that spells the whole name

       Am7     Em7           G
From a city that knows what goes on

          Am7         Em7          G
It's been waiting for us its whole life

          Am7         Em7         G
For us to forget that look in its eye

          Am7         Em7          G
It's been waiting for us its whole life

          Am7      Em7    G
For us to forget its name
