Verse 1:
F         Am
  Looking out my window,
C           G
  what do I see?
F       Am
  Seven hundred houses,
C              G
  scattered in front of me.
F         Am
  Silence all around me,
C      G
  deafening the air.
F       Am
  Not a sign of anyone,
C        G
  I just have to stare.

Verse 2:
F      Am
  What is this madness?
C              G
  My hopes and dreams are sand.
F                    Am
  All the signs that led me home
C               G
  are scattered to the wind.
F               Am
  I'm searching for my friends,
C             G
  and shaking in my skin.
F                   Am
  Where have all of my saints gone?
C                G
  Will they come marching in?


Chorus:
Dm            F
  What can be done?
C                  G
  Another storm to overcome.
Dm            F       C
  What can be done?
Dm            F
  What can be done?
C                  G
  Another storm to overcome.
F
  Now…


Verse 2:
F            Am
  Let's pick up the pieces
C           G
  from this tragedy.
F                Am
  You and I must come to terms
C             G
  with this reality.
F     Am
  I'm lost, and I'm looking,
C           G
  my city's washed away.
F                   Am
  But you know that I'll be back,
C            G
  I'm coming back to stay.
