[Verse]
C
What were we thinking
G# C
We moved to a literal Indian burial ground
C7
Where the floor won't stop shaking
F Fm13
And the fires don’t go out
[Verse]
C
What even happened
G# C
We had it real good and we loved like we should then we lost
C7 F Fm13
Engulfed and turned into dust
[Chorus]
Asus4
And in the end times I was
G7
Hoping we’d fight side by side
C(add9) A7
To hunt and gather or whatever
Needed to survive
Asus4
To pull through but we two
G7
Fools threw

When did we get lost

The journey was tough, we went

Off-track and suffered enough

The going got tough

C
When did we lose it
G# C
When everyone did all the rations we hid are still here
C7 F Fm13
Lentils and tears
[Chorus]
Asus4
And in the end times I was
G7
Hoping we’d be kissing
C(add9)
To hold real tight and see the
A7
Light in reminiscing in
Asus4
All we lost

To building blocks
