C  B   C 
    Hurrah i awake from yesterday
 Bm
alive but the war is here to stay
A#
so my love catherina and me
          Am 
decide to take our last walk
through the noise to the sea
G#
 not to die but to be reborn
 G 
away from a life so battered and torn....

[Verse 2]
---------------------
C  B   C 
    oh say can you see its really such a mess
      Bm
every inch of earth is a fighting nest
      A#
giant pencil and lipstick tube shaped things
   Am 
continue to rain and cause screaming pain
        G#
and the arctic stains
from silver blue to bloody red
       G 
as our feet find the sand
                       G     A#
and the sea is strait ahead..

[Interlude (2)]

C       A#
  strait ahead.....
G  A#C          C 
       well its too bad

that our friends
        A#           F 
cant be with us today
well thats too bad
"the machine
C         G 
  that we built
                A#
would never save us" thats what they say
F 
thats why they aint coming with us today
and they also said

[Bridge]
---------------------
       C 
"its impossible for man
G 
to live and breath underwater..
  A#                             F 
forever" was their main complaint
and they also threw this in my face:
they said
C 
anyway

G 
it would be beyond the will of God
        A#               F 
and the grace of the King
C | G  | A# | F | C 
G | A# | F  

[Verse 3]
---------------------
      C 
so my darling and I
make love in the sand
     Bm
to salute the last moment
ever on dry land
A#
 our machine has done its work
played its part well
          Am 
without a scratch on our bodies
and we bid it farewell
G#
starfish and giant foams
greet us with a smile
       G 
before our heads go under
we take a last look
at the killing noise
