Em   G   E7   D   G   E7   D   C   G   D   C   G   D   Em

[Verse 1]
Em
We met on the beach amid rumours of war
C G Gsus4 G
Your head in your hand, what you saw you won't say
G D Dsus4 D
As the newspapers flew in the wind

[Verse 2]
Em
I can see you're one of that kind
C G Gsus4 G
Who carry around a time bomb in their mind, no one knows
G D Dsus4 D
When you'll slip the pin

[Chorus]
D Am Em
Rumours of war, rumours of war

[Break]
Bm G Bm C G

[Verse 3]
Em
I see that your dress is torn at the edge
C G Gsus4 G
You were lost intense, like a man on a ledge, waiting to jump
G D Dsus4 D
As the waves break over the shore

[Verse 4]
Em
You say there's a storm that can't be delayed
C G Gsus4 G
And lately it seems to be comin' this way, you can hear it break
G D Dsus4 D
Like the slam of a door

[Chorus]
D Am Em
Rumours of war, rumours of war

[Solo]
Bm   G   Bm   C   G   Em7   Bm   G   Bm   C   G

[Verse 5]
Em
You tell me, just look all around
C
At the past and the present, the cross and the crescent
G Gsus4 G D Dsus4 D
The signs and the planets are lining up like before

[Verse 6]
Em
There are souls on fire in the day and the night
C
On the left and the right, in the black and the white
G Gsus4 G D Dsus4 D
You can see it burn in the eyes of the rich and the poor

[Chorus]
D Am Em
Rumours of war, rumours of war

[Break]
Bm G Bm C G

[Chorus]
D Am Em
Rumours of war, rumours of war

[Break]
