Intro: C
Interludes: same as intro
GDmAm
The stars are fading, ashes to ashes and dust to dust,
GDmAm
The bread we have broken, the wine we drank from tarnished cups,
FCG
And I stopped believing in miracles a long, long time ago,
DmCG
I lost my faith and I sacrificed my soul,
AmCG
I worshiped fallen idols, chased false prophets to an end,
FAmC
To where I just can't see the beautiful anymore
GDmAm
The ice retreating, mountains exposed in the sun,
GDmAm
The earth is baking, raindrops precede the floods
FCG
And hurricanes with children's names write our history
FCG
The signatures tracked by satellites on high,
AmCG
We should have talked about the weather a bit more seriously,
FAm
More than stocks and shares and corporate wares,
FCG
We were blinded by the skeptics and their greed
FCG
I just can't see the beautiful anymore;
FCG
I just can't see the beautiful anymore
AmFGEm
I howled and I cried when the melody died, the song was finally over,
AmFGEm
There was nothing to say, words stole away, their meaning lost in the ether,
FCG
What there was left stopped making sense, a broken up alphabet, language dispersed
FCG
I just can't hear the beautiful anymore
Instrumental part:

The oceans are rising, islands in time disappear,
GDmAm
The canyons burning, forests consumed by the flames,
FCG
Wildfires rage across the plains to be starved by barren soil,
FCG
Deserted farms where seeds refuse to grow,
AmCG
I close my eyes to cloudless skies I dream of what we had before,
FCG
I just can't see the beautiful anymore
FCG
I just can't see the beautiful anymore
FC
I just can't see the beautiful anymore
