[Intro]
Gm F Eb F Gm Bb F Eb

F Gm

[Verse 1]
Gm
  I have my mother's dreams
Bb
  I have my father's eyes
Eb
  You can't take that from me
F         Bb   Cm
 Just go ahead and try
Gm
  The crescent city sleeps
Bb
  While giants in the sky
Eb
  Preparing to unleash
F            Bb  Cm Eb
 Let loose a mighty cry

[Pre-Chorus]
               F
Can nobody save us?
                Gm
Will anyone try?
                 Bb
The bayou is burning
                  Eb
The cypress has died
         F
And all along they're saying

[Chorus]
Gm     F   Bb     Eb
Help is on the way
Gm     F   Bb     Eb Bb
Help is on the way
Cm Gm            F
     One by land, two by sea
Bb              Eb
  Right there in  front of me
Cm     F   Bb     Eb Bb Cm
Help is on the way

[Verse 2]
Gm                        Bb
  Five thousand feet below
As black smoke engulfs the sky
Eb
  The ocean floor explodes
F       Bb  Cm
 Eleven mothers cry
Gm
  My bones all resonate
Bb
  A burning lullaby
Eb
  You can't take that from me
F         Bb   Cm  Eb
 Just go ahead and try

[Pre-Chorus]
                       F
She stands at the shoreline
                     Gm
With hands in the air
                         Bb
Her words pierce the dark  night
                 Eb
Does anyone care?
         F
And all alone they asking

[Chorus]
Gm     F   Bb     Eb
Help is on the way
Gm     F   Bb     Eb Bb
Help is on the way
Cm Gm            F
     One by land, two by sea
Bb              Eb
  Right there in  front of me
Cm     F          Eb F
Help is on the way

[Breakdown]
Gm Eb
     Right here, right here
Gm Eb
     Right here, right here
Gm Eb
     Right here, right here

[Bridge]
Cm                    Eb
  Choking on the black  gold
                  Cm
Upon which we rely
                      F
We keep axes in the attics
To see the cameras in the sky
Gm      F         Eb
Help is on the way
They said, they said
Gm      F         Eb
Help is on the way
Bb     Cm
  They said, they said
Gm           F
We were told just to sit tight
      Bb       Eb
Cause somebody will soon arrive
Gm      F         Eb
Help is on the way
             Gm  F Eb
But it never came

[Solo]
         Gm  F Eb
It never came
Gm F Eb F

[Chorus]
Gm     F   Bb     Eb
Help is on the way
Gm     F   Bb     Eb Bb
Help is on the way
Cm Gm            F
     One by land, two by sea
Bb              Eb
  Right there in  front of me
Cm     F       Gm
Help is on the way

[Outro]
F Eb F      Gm F Eb F Gm
     On the way
