	        Dm 
Safe under covers tonight 
Gm 
Your face is happy and bright 
A                     A7 
There by the old fire light 
      Dm  Gm F A 
It is warm 
Dm                       F 
But we are the darkening clouds 
C                    Gm 
We are the gathering swarm 
Dm      A          Dm 
We are, we are The storm 
Bb                                          Dm   
You built your towers on back-broken Bowery sailors 
F                            C                       G 
On mothers and fathers still crying for their second-born 
Dm 
We took the keys from your jailer 
Gm                    Bb 
His body is festering torn 
Dm              A 
'Cause we are, we are 
Dm      Gm 
The storm 

( F  A7  Dm  F  A7 ) 

Dm 
These bodiеs came out of the soil 
Gm 
Ripped out of gypsum and oil 
A 
All just yours to spoil 
Dm      Gm F A7 
And dеform 
Dm                      F 
But now this old galleon rolls 
C                             Gm 
Galloping straight 'round the horn 
Dm      A 
We are, we are 
Dm 
The storm 
Bb                                                 Dm 
So it's haul away, comrades, ropes over blistering shoulders 
F                                 C                             G 
As the wind shakes the barley and carries on right through the corn 
Dm 
There'll be no forgiveness tonight 
Gm                  Bb 
Only fair Zilliah's thorn 
Dm              A 
'Cause we are, we are 
Dm      
The storm 

( Gm  F  E  Dm  Gm  F  E ) 
( Dm  A  A7  Bb ) 
( F  D  G ) 
( Bb  C  Dm  Bb  C ) 

Bb                                                 Dm 
So it's haul away, comrades, ropes over blistering shoulders 
        F                        C                              G 
As the wind shakes the barley and carries on right through the corn 
Bb                                              Dm 
And we ain't gonna stop 'til we are satisfied soldiers 
F                  C                    G       Dm 
Rich men, big men, fattened up, happy, reborn 
Dm 
And so the wheel comes 'round again 
C                               Gm 
And we're safe by the fire so warm 
Dm      A 
We are, we are 
Dm      Gm  F  A  Dm 
The storm
