[Verse 1]
B
I know I promised
Em
if the ground shakes
That it wouldn't be
B
an earthquake But no
F#
train has left the station
B
And no other explanation
So now you're analyzing
Em
fault lines And convincing
B
yourself of past lies
Should I break our vow
F#
of silence And scream
G Em
Get out of the basement
[Instrumental]
B Em B F# G Em
[Verse 2]
B
I know I promised we
Em
would never Have to
B
talk about the weather
Just to fill the air
F#
between us Never dreamed
B
that we would need it
But the lightning and
Em
the thunder Sometimes
B
make me wonder If I
should break our vow
F#
of silence And scream
Get down to the basement
[Chorus 1]
G
I can see the funnel right
Em
outside But I'm too tired
B F#
to hide Yeah I'm too tired
E
to hide The funnel is
B F#
right outside But I'm
E
too tired to hide
[Verse 3]
B Em
I excuse this one exception
B
As emergency protection
But now we're bored and
F#
underground Making
B
noises for the background
Em
And our only entertainment
B
Is staring at the foundation
F#
And wondering if that step
crack Is something we created
[Chorus 2]
G
I can see the funnel right
Em
outside But I'm too tired
B F#
to hide Yeah I'm too tired
E
to hide The funnel is
B F#
right outside But I'm
E
too tired to hide
[Outro]
Was it something
G Em
we created?
Was it something
Bm F#m
we created?
Was it something
G Em
we created?
Was it something
B
we created?
