E7
let’s write a story of a tidal wave
we run out of luck , we run out of days
we run out of gas a hundred miles away from a station
there’s a war and a plague , smoke and disaster
lions in the coliseum , screams of laughter
motherless children , a witness and a bible
nothing but rain ahead , and no chance for our survival

A E7
just before the flood comes , just before the night falls

A G E7
just before the blood runs into the valley

A G A
just before my eyes go , just before we can’t go no further

G A E7
love throws a line to you and me

heard someone calling me from very far away
sister , oh , sister , did i hear them say
prisoner of this endless story of pain
you hold the key , try to find a way

just before the flood comes , just before the night falls
just before the blood runs into the valley
just before my eyes go , just before it all blows to pieces
we see love throw a line to you and me

E7
love , throw a line , love , throw a line
love , you better pick up your pace , if we’re gonna win this race
love , we’re running out of time , pull yourself up from behind
love , throw a line
