Verse 1
G Am7
We flew over the cascades
Cadd9
We were forced to behave while we sat
Cmaj7 G
In rows like children
G Am7
I crossed some standard state lines
Cadd9 Cmaj7 G
And finally found myself so far away from home
G Am7
And even though New England intrigued us, thrilled us,
Cadd9 Cmaj7 G
Our bones were cold as sticks and stones
G Am7
We flew over the cascades
Cadd9 Cmaj7
Just to find ourselves in storms we've never known
Chorus
A7sus4 D
The winds blew like a beast with wings
A7sus4
And yes, everything was blown so far away
And I fell down
D
I failed to cut its neck
Verse 2
G Am7
Even after hours of waiting
Cadd9 Cmaj7 G
There was no telling when the storm would find its way
G Am7
The lands we tried to memorize
Cadd9 Cmaj7 G
We're no longer wrapped in tepid shades of red
G Am7
And through the night the storm held me down
Cadd9 Cmaj7 G
And bit my neck and said it�d be okay
G Am7
I stared into the fury
Cadd9 Cmaj7
And the beauty of its overwhelming strength
Chorus
A7sus4 D
The winds blew like a beast with wings
A7sus4
And yes, everything was blown so far away
And I fell down
D
I failed to cut its neck
A7sus4 Cadd9 A7sus4 Cadd9 A7sus4
Bridge
I saw a dim light
Cadd9
In the mouth of the beast
So I followed it in
A7sus4
It's too late to retreat
It swallowed me whole
Cadd9
And my flesh became meat
Oh I can't look back now
G
Because the beast is complete
End
Cadd9
We flew over the cascades
Cmaj7
We were forced to behave
