[Verse 1]
Am                   C
  I have my mother's dreams
                   F
I have my father's eyes
                         G
You can’t take that from me
         C   Dm  Am
Just go ahead and try
                   C
The crescent city sleeps
                    F
Watch lions in the sky
               G
Preparing to unleash
          C  Dm
Let loose a mighty cry

[Refrain 1]
F           G
  Can nobody save us?
            Am
Will anyone try?
            C
The bayou is burning
              F
The cypress died
         G
And all along they're saying

[Chorus 1]
Am      G      F
Help is on the way
(They said they said)
Am      G      F
Help is on the way
C      Dm
  (They said they said)
Am            G
  One by land, two by sea
C               F
  Right there in front of me
Am      G             C Dm
Help is on the way

[Verse 2]
Am                     C
  Five thousand feet below
                            F
As black smoke engulfs the sky
                  G
The ocean floor explodes
       C Dm    Am
Eleven mo-thers cry
                  C
My bones all resonate
               F
A burning lullaby
                         G
You can’t take that from me
         C   Dm
Just go ahead and try

[Refrain 2]
F                  G
  She says that’s the shoreline
                  Am
With hands in the air
                   C
Her words pierce the dark night
            F
Does anyone care?
         G
And all along I say it

[Chorus 2]
Am      G      F
Help is on the way
(They said they said)
Am      G      F
Help is on the way
C      Dm
  (They said they said)
Am            G
 one by land, two by sea
C               F
  Right there in front of me
Am      G      FAm      G      F(hold) G(hold)
Help is on the way

[Bridge]
F                   Am
  right here right here
F                   Am
  right here right here
F                   Am
  right here right here
Dm               F
  Choking on the black gold
                     Dm
Upon which we here rely
                         G
We keep actions in the attic
To see cameras in the sky
Am      G      F
help is on the way
They said the said
Am      G      F
help is on the way
     C       Dm
They said the said
Am
we we're told
G
just to sit tight
    C
for somebody
F
will soon arrive
Am      G      F
help is on the way
           Am   G F
They never came
          Am   G F Am G F Dm F G
They never came

[Chorus 3]
Am      G      F
Help is on the way
(They said they said)
Am      G      F
Help is on the way
C      Dm
  (They said they said)
Am            G
 ony by land, two by sea
C               F
  Right there in front of me
Am      G      Am G F
Help is on the way
G     Am G F G Am(hold)
on my way
