[Intro]: Am C G D Am C G Am

Am                      C    G                             D
There is whisky in the water, and there is death upon the vine
Am                               C       G                                 Am
There is fear in the eyes of your father, and there is yours and there is mine
Am                           C       G                             D
There is a desert veiled in pavement, and there's a city of seven hills
Am                        C   G                          Am
Our debris flows to the ocean, to meet again, I hope it will

     F         C/E      G            Am
How could something so fair, be so cruel
       F        C/E    G              Am
When this black sun revolved, around you

[Interlude]: Am C G D

Am                       C       G                             D
There is an answer in a question, and there is hope within despair
Am                    C      G                                Am
There is beauty in a failure, and there are depths beyond compare
Am                       C    G                              D
There is a role of a lifetime, and there's a song yet to be sung
Am                              C      G                              Am
And there's a dumpster in the driveway, of all the plans that came undone

     F         C/E      G            Am
How could something so fair, be so cruel
       F        C/E    G              Am
When this black sun revolved, around you
     F         C/E      G            Am
How could something so fair, be so cruel
       F        C/E    G              Am
When this black sun revolved, around you

[Interlude]: Am C G D Am C G Am

Am                      C    G                             D
There is whisky in the water, and there is death upon the vine
Am                            C       G                            Am
And there is grace within forgiveness, but it's so hard for me to find

     F         C/E      G            Am
How could something so fair, be so cruel
       F        C/E    G              Am
When this black sun revolved, around you
     F         C/E      G            Am
How could something so fair, be so cruel
       F        C/E    G              Am
When this black sun revolved, around you

Clarification:
Chordname (G C E A)

Information:
Since the D is really a D5 on guitar (which doesn't work as well playing chords on ukulele) you can 
choose between a D and Dm (2 2 1 0), personally I think the D rings better with the vocal melody,  
but Dm is more "correct" based on the notes in the key

If anyone really wants to learn the melody parts arranged for ukulele on tablature just leave a 
comment or send me a message asking nicely and I can add it later on
