[Verse 1]
D G D
What's in the water? What's in the wind?

The weather is wilder than it's ever been
D G D
The ocean's still blue, but it ain't what it seems
A D A
It's time to remember that we all live downstream

[Verse 2]

What's gonna happen? What will you think?

When it's not so easy to get you a drink
D G D
The water is changing, the well's going dry
A D
It surely might kill us in the sweet by and by

[Chorus]
G A
You sleepwalk for centuries and don't look around
D G A
At the progress of man, determined and bound
G A
We live in the ruins of another life's dream
Bm G A D
Oh, but nobody told us that we all live downstream

[Interlude]

There's an island adrift out in the sea

It's being made special by you and by me

Nothing can live there, nothing can be
