A D E
A
In trouble with the dogs
D E
Yapping like the trogs on that tape
A
Getting stepped on like a baby
D
Maybe slept too long
E
Is that so wrong?
A
So at sunrise we moved on
D E
At lunch the storm had gone away
A
I didn't swim
D
But I watched the waves
E
While others stayed
C#m D
under for over an hour
Bm E A D E
While lovers hovered around the towel
CHORUS:
C#m F#m
We washed our mouths at the riverbed
C#m D
When we noticed something glowing
Bm
It was growing
E A
Things are going to change
F#m C#m
Hot rainfalls made of magma
D
melts Alaska
Bm E Bm E A F#m
And in icy Argentine they say now I've seen it all
Dm E
Who knew? Volcanoes!
A
In trouble with the gods
D E
We didn't always misbehave
A
Where the sun shine, now it's gone
D
We’ve been waiting for so long
E
Now it's on.
A
Not that we would do ourselves in
D E
Funny how things work out in the end
A
I never learned to swim
D E
Now I'm wasted, I'm too old
C#m D
Just hold on for as long as you can
Bm E
I'm so afraid to die
CHORUS
A E
The frogs, the frogs got it first
A E
And the birds all knew it too
F#m D
The worst was the worse smell on earth
A E
Silver and snow
A E
Silver and snow
C#m
Don't breathe
D
Don't breathe
A
Don't breathe
E
Don’'t breathe
CHORUS(different chords):
B G#m
We washed our mouths at the riverbed
Ebm G#m
When we noticed something glowing
B
It was growing
G#m Eb7 G#m
Things are going to change, yeah
B G#m
Hot rainfalls made of magma
Ebm G#m
melts Alaska
B F# E
And in icy Argentine they say, oh

A little volcanoe...etc
