F#m              E
The tide is high, sandbag your street!

 G#m
Converging, swelling channels meet

F#m               E
The torrent roars, banks are breached

G#m
Stay calm, be cool, a part at least

B                  G#m
The brakes are on, controlled retreat

A
Quick-go-slowly, heart valve weak

B                 G#m
Fairness flounders, sincere cheats

A
Disgraced champions, taste defeat

F#m              E
Beware the timely statement leak...

G#m
The trigger is the price of meat

F#m            E
Barricade your first floor doors

G#m
Evacuate your sick and poor

B                G#m     
Be larger picture, stronger, deep

A
Be good, be bad, be more, elite...

B                G#m
A prince of bread, a pint of peace

A
In Middle Earth, in Middle East

B                G#m
Go east, go north, go south, go west

A
Leave mouths open, with your best

B               G#m
Adapt to change, stay unimpressed

A
Adopt: 'Chekov', to family crest
