Charlie Darwin by The Low Anthem
Charlie Darwin
C F
Set the sails I feel the winds a'stirring
Am G
Toward the bright horizon set the way
Am F
Cast your wreckless dreams upon our Mayflower
G C
Haven from the world and her decay
C F
And who could heed the words of Charlie Darwin
Am G
Fighting for a system built to fail
Am F
Spooning water from their broken vessels
G C
As far as I can see there is no land
F C E7 Em Am G
Oh my god, the water's all around us
F C G C
Oh my god, it's all around
C F
And who could heed the words of Charlie Darwin
Am G
The lords of war just profit from decay
Am F
And trade their children's promise for the jingle
G C
The way we trade our hard earned time for pay
F C E7 Em Am G
Oh my god, the water's cold and shapeless
F C G C
Oh my god, it's all around
F C E7 Em Am G
Oh my god, life is cold and formless
F C G C
Oh my god, it's all around

You can play a regular C instead of C/G. Both are fine but I think C/G sounds nicer.
