Capo on 2
(NC) All the boys who called their mothers on that day
(NC) Were no tough bunch, but they had the nerves, to go and say
That all your secrets were drowned
With the pioneers who were flooded from this town
They packed their bags only moments too late
With the pounding waves crashing up against the weakened water gates
Dire times call for dire faces
So lovely dancer call and answer
Trade our places in the night
Were running barefoot you and I
Dead lovers salivate broken hearts tessellate tonight
(NC) And all the kids who cut their knees on that old school yard fence D G Em D
(NC) Were holding out for prosperity in self defense D G Em A
We beat them down again
Its no fun playing cowboy for pretend
We'll show them what the backs of our hands are for
The divide is clear in the coming year the rich will take the poor
Dire times call for dire faces
So lovely dancer call and answer
Trade our places in the night
Were running barefoot you and I
Dead lovers salivate broken hearts tessellate tonight
