[Please Note]
I couldn't find the lyrics for that song so I transcribed them myself.
English is not my first language and I'm aware some of the lines are wrong.
Any help to correct them will be appreciated.
Thank you and enjoy =)

[Intro]
C | C |
[Verse 1]
C F
On a roof, suddenly I wonder
C F
Oh, it's true and although I wander the streets late at night
C F
But in the creek, will they wade deep?
C F
And rip the warmth out of our sheets?
[Instrumental]
C | F | F | F | F |
C | F | F | F | F |
[Verse 2]
C F
Enemy, every last word that they'll write
C F
They'll ensure that you won't sleep well at night and even then
C F
In a week they will bring bondage
C F
An empty lot where your lost heart is
[Instrumental]
C | F | F | F | F |
C | F | F | F | F |

C | F | F | F | F |
[Verse 3]
C F
All the world great walls collapsing
C F
And the swan collecting the ashes of all that we've known
C F
They'll attack what they want badly
C F
And with their big checkbooks handy
[Bridge]
G F C (G)
Carry the remnants of what we have lost
G F C (G)
We dream of a time when we will beat the frost
G F C (G)
They'll come a-swinging for their sunken costs
G F
They'll come a-swinging
F
Swinging
F
Swinging
[Instrumental]

[Outro]
C F
But in the creek, will they wade deep?
C F
And rip the warmth out of our sheets?
C F
They will stop when they're soft only
C F
But it won't end, baby, they won't be
