Tom: A

                    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

Refrão:
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

Refrão:
    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

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
              B
A little volcanoe...etc
