C#m G# A E
Remember days before the fire, before the flood
F# G# F# G#
When houses were filled with laughter and love
C#m G# A E
The…wind…it howls like…demon dogs sent from above
F# G# F# G#
Birds take…to the sky like they know what's to come
A E G# A
Oh, you can't run faster than fire, faster than water
A E G# A
Oh, you better run for your lives, grab your sons and your... daughters
A E G# A
Oh, well the fire line, I don't think we'll hold you
A E G# A
Oh, mother nature's a b**ch, I don't think she warned you
A G# A
But she is gonna show you, hey!

C#m G# A E
The flames ignite, spreading hell across the earth
F# G# F# G#
Our lives are engulfed, no regard for their worth
C#m G# A E
Homes and hills and broken wills are blackened by the burn
F# G# F# G#
Death to the dream, there's nowhere to turn
A E G# A
Oh, you can't run faster than fire, faster than water

C#m G#
It's a funeral pyre, bleeding hearts ablaze
A E
Hoping help will come, they say it's on its way
G# A
But the fires, they rage and rise and you can't be saved
E G# A
All the work we've done, oh, the dream it dies today
A E G# A
Oh, you can't run faster than fire, faster than water
A E G# A
Oh, you better run for your lives, grab your sons and your... daughters
A E G# A
Oh, well the fire line, I don't think we'll hold you
A E G# A
Oh, mother nature's a b**ch, I don't think she warned you
A G# A
But she is gonna show you, hey!
