Acoustic version of an awesome song.
I used the following video as my reference
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nEB96x28ZU
and it all seems to be accurate.
Here's The Zolas website containing lyrics and other links

Here are some chords you'll need to know first though
Bm [224432]
G [320033]
D [x00323]
A [002220]
F#7 [x1435x]
Capo on 3rd fret
VERSE
Bm G D
I dreamt about you the other night
Bm G D
We were there and people started to die
Bm G D
The seas rose to a terrible height
G D G F#7
But we survived yes we survived (I don't know why)
VERSE
Bm G D
We watched the grass pile up in the cracks
Bm G D
The birds return, the nights went black
Bm G D
Yeah we were lovers in the great collapse
G D G F#7
The seasons came, the seasons passed
CHORUS
G D A Em
So free what you love 'cause it's gonna die anyway
G D A Em
Those golden days will be fossilized and you'll scream
G D Bm A
Oh back it up, back it up, but it's not the same
G D A Bm
Though it's enough just to say I knew you well
x3 -> Bm, G, D
x1 -> G, D, G, F#7
VERSE
Bm G D
Now I can't sleep and I can't say no
Bm G D
Civilization ain't got no soul
Bm G D
The tick tock ticks out of control
G D G F#7
I'm on a roll, I'm on a roll (he's lost control)
VERSE
Bm G D
Though when my dream ends
Bm G D
It's true we're hardly friends
Bm G D
I can't forget those seasons
G D D F#7
The world is one, the world is one
CHORUS
G D A Em
So free what you love 'cause it's gonna die anyway
G D A Em
Those golden days will be fossilized and we'll scream
G D Bm A
Oh back it up, back it up, but it's not the same
G D A Bm
Though it's enough just to say I knew you well
Or alternately continue the chorus by ending the last line with...
G, D, A, G
and then start the chorus again as done in the video
Hope you enjoy it!
