Can also be transposed to A using capo 2

[Verse 1]
B
It's a quiet night on main street where the poisoned water runs
B
It'll never be the same street when the time appointed comes
A B
It's talked about in whispers, nothing certain only rumor and clue
C#m E
But the violent sheet of silence will be shattered when the train comes
B
through

[Verse 2]
B
We may only be subordinates but we hear everything
B
All your closed-door conversations we're always listening
A E B
We sense frequencies you'd never hear or think to pay attention to
C#m E B
And we can tell what's on its way here long before the train comes through

[Verse 3]
B
The real news comes in flashes, here and there among the noise
B
Borderland insurgent clashes with the local army boys
A B
Who think they've got a handle on the territory, for at least a year or two
C#m E B
It'll be too late to get out of the way by the time the train comes through

[Break]
C#m E
B

[Verse 4]
B
This city is the bearer of an old and secret curse
B
It's not written in your bibles, it's a verse behind a verse
A B
Only visible to an obsessive detail-oriented heathen Jew
C#m E
But it's the hidden and unspoken that will thunder when the train comes
B
through

[Verse 5]
B
Yes, we labored and we built your dwellings here on the hillside
