Chords

[Verse 1]
Cm                A#
Standing on the edge of the cliff

G#                     A#
Didn’t think it would come to this

Cm            A#
A dead calm before the storm

Fm                  A#
Not a sound from their engines

Cm                                           A#   G#
From the other side, saw a shooting star at 4:22 a.m
[Verse 2]
Cm                       A#
A warning shot from the rhythm demons

G#             A#
Or from the guitar preachers

Cm         A#
I’ve been touched by both

Fm          A#   Cm
And by the Holy Ghost

                                              A#  G#
From the other side, saw a shooting star at 4:22 a.m
[Chorus]
C                E
Underneath the stars above

   F         Fm
I said, "No stop

C              E
I am not giving up on us."

C                   E
And I am not going anywhere soon

F                  Fm
Annie, grab your bass guitar

C                       E
Help me bring in the October moon

F
Then you shout, "Run for cover."

D            G#
I scream, "Rev the Triumph’s engine."

E                     Am
You say "Baby we’re too late

           G#                C
From the Cloud Riders, no escape."

G         Em          Am
Darling, what’s the blanket for?

                F
Riding out this storm

          Gm              C    G# A# Gm
We’ll be riding out this storm
[Verse 3]
Cm              A#
Carved a stave against the grain

G#              A#
At the nine doors to gain

Cm              A#
The secrets of trees

Fm           A#
Once I could hear them singing

Cm
From the other side
[Verse 4]
                     A#
Back then, the thunder gods

G#              A#
They used to cast our lots

Cm         A#
But then I lost touch

Fm                   A#
Close to when her chariot

Cm
From the other side
[Verse 5]
A#
A chariot pulled by cats

Fm              A#
Purring, "we'll be returning."

Cm           G#
From the other side

Cm                A#        G#
"Girl, it’s time you take back your life."
[Chorus]
C                E
Underneath the stars above

   F         Fm
I said, "No stop

C              E
I am not giving up on us."

C                   E
And I am not going anywhere soon

F                  Fm
Annie, grab your bass guitar

C                       E
Help me bring in the October moon

Then you shout, "Run for cover."

D            G#
I scream, "Rev the Triumph’s engine."

E                     Am
You say "Baby we’re too late

           G#                C
From the Cloud Riders, no escape."

G         Em          Am
Darling, what’s the blanket for?

                F
Riding out this storm

          Gm              C    G# A# Gm
We’ll be riding out this storm
