A Wind In The Ruins

Hear a demo version of the song:
       Ami
It's a day at the beach,
 Dmi
95 in the shade.
G
We bought lots of beach games,
      F         Ami
Every one is unplayed.
    F
The kids are all crying.
    G            Ami
The adults are resigned.
          F
And there is no ice cream.
G          G
 Meanwhile, in my mind:

CHORUS:

        Ami
There's a wind through the ruins
  C
A soft rain is floating down
  F        F
A quiet descends
    G           G
So, so long  my friends
     F          G               Ami
As I drift away off through the fog

It's a day at the office,
and my boss is out sick,
and this purchase order
needs approval real quick.
and my email's FUBAR,
and the client's insane
Printer's low on toner,
Meanwhile, in my brain:

[CHORUS]

It's been a long week
And my back aches like mad.
Can't complain to my wife,
'cause her week's twice as bad.
My neighbors are shooting
fireworks every night.
If I could just get to sleep,
I'd sure welcome the sight:

[CHORUS]
