[Verse 1]
         G                   G  
Rain and fire crossed that ocean
             F               G   
Another mad man done struck again
          G                 G   
Rain and fire crossed that ocean
            F               G

               G           G     
Sitting down here fallout shelter
          F             G   
Paint my walls, twice a week
              G            G
