Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][Em][Gaug]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
I [C]watch you drift [G]away
Around the room in that [F#m]dress
[Am]The jewels on your [C]bracelets
Have seen their [Em]best

[Verse 2]
I [C]watch the sweat [G]fall
Against your [F#m]clothes
[D]I'v[Am]e seen the look on the fac[C]es
I think they [Em]know

[Verse 3]
That [C]the clock is ticking [G]away
And the wind is calling [F#m]us
An[D]d t[Am]he pleasantries will c[C]hain us
No [G]more

[Verse 4]
When it [G]all is much too [Dm]much
We'll run [C]to the [B]wastelands
Where the snow is all there [C]is
And words sound [G]different
When it all is much too [Dm]much
Meet [C]me in the wasteland[B]s
Where the fear will fade [C]away
Where the children in us [D]play[Em]

[Verse 5]
I [C]walk the smoky [G]room
And stumble into [F#m]you
[Am]The chattering of their [C]faces
Says nothing [Em]new

[Verse 6]
But [C]the clock is ticking [G]away
And the wind is calling [F#m]us
And [Am]the way you make your [C]exit
There are no [G]words

[Verse 7]
Would it [G]all is much too [Dm]much
We'll run [C]to the [B]wastelands
At the car beside the [C]road
And taking [G]shelter
When it feels like much too [Dm]much
Meet [C]me in the wasteland[B]s
Where the horror slowly [C]fades

[Interlude 1]
Where the children in us play
[D][Dm][G#][Cm][G#][Cm]
[G][Cm][G#][G][Em]
[Eb][Em][Eb][Cm][Eb][Cm][G]

[Verse 8]
When [G]the world is much too [Dm]much
We'll run [C]to the wastelands
[B]Leave footprints in the sno[C]w
Till our ties are [G]severed

[Verse 9]
When it [G]all is much too [Dm]much
Meet [C]me in the wasteland[B]s
Make a chain of flower[C]s
Like our ties are [G]severed

[Verse 10]
When [G]the world is much too [Dm]much
Meet [C]me in the wasteland[B]s
At the car beside the [C]road

[Verse 11]
And taking shelter
[G]When the world is much too muc[Dm]h
Meet me [C]there in the wasteland[B]s
And the wind is on our [C]face
And our veins are [G]opened

[Verse 12]
When the [G]world is much too [Dm]much
Meet me [C]in the wasteland[B]s
Make a chain of flower[C]s
And the children in us [G]play

[Interlude 2]
[G][Dm]

[Verse 13]
The sky was steely
The countryside was bare
Twigs crackled under Mole's
[Em]feet
Mole was alone
And far from help
And night was closing in
