sunshine ceases  

capo 3rd chord formations:

D7, F#m7, E7

Time stops
When the black wind blows, and the last red rose
can't grow in this green glade
And the sun will shine no more

Rain drops
And the lightning glows, and the vultures doze
in a low-down spot of shade
And the storm clouds start to pour

Rats crawl
Where the corpses lay, and the phantoms play,
where the spirits call their home
And the townsfolk choke with fear

Crows caw
And the banshees bray, the survivors pray,
and display their faith alone
But they know their end is near

    CHORUS:

    G, D7, E7
     The choices that we made weren't ours
     Our lives were predetermined, rounds before the final bell
     This fate was fixed between the stars
     This path was destiny, before we formed from simple cells

You'll know
When the trees all die, and the lakes run dry,
and the rivers cease to flow
That the savage beast runs free

Some go
Where the bats won't fly and the children try,
try to hide inside this snow
Not of ice, but dust debris

Sky burns
And the earthquakes shake, and the buildings break,
and they tumble to the ground
In a pyrotechnic show

Sea churns
With a blood-red wake, and its waves that take
any foolish sailors down
To the depths which lie below

CHORUS

BRIDGE G, E7, G, A & SHORT SOLO

CHORUS
