the earth will shake – thrice

Dm Em11 ( open strum )
we dream of ways to break these iron bars
Am
we dream of black nights without moon or stars
D5 D6
we dream of tunnels and of sleeping guards
Am D5
we dream of blackouts in the prison yard

D5
heartbroken , we found ( a gleam of hope )
D5
harken to the sound , ( a whistle blows )
D5
heaven sent reply , ( however small )
D5
evidence of life ( beyond these walls )
D5
born and bred ( in this machine )
D5
wardens dread ( to see us dream )
D5
we hold tight ( to legends of )
D5
real life , ( the way it was before )

D5 D6
we dream of jailers throwing down their arms
D5 D6
we dream of open gates and no alarms

Am – Am7 – Asus4 – Amadd6

we dream of ways to break these iron bars ( chain gang )
Am
we dream of black nights without moon or stars ( drum crescendo )
