VERSE Am What are they talking about G On the weekends Dm Lost in the forest of this heart Am Is a foreign still
Am Why are they shaking their heads G We're stuck in slow life Dm Is it the beating of the chest Am That makes us feel the rest

Am We're slowly sailing away G Behind closed eyes Dm Where not a single ray of light Am Can puncture through the night
CHORUS Fmaj7 You caught me in a tide AmG And I caught you Dm Sheltered by the night AmG Red in tooth and red in claw Fmaj7 You saw me in new light AmG And I saw you Dm Sheltered by the night AmG Red in tooth and red in claw
VERSE Am Between the daylight G And the deep sea Dm Lies a swarm of silhouettes Am Floating aimlessy
Am But I'm a mountain G I am a killer Dm You'll get lost and buried deep Am If you swim with me
CHORUS Fmaj7 You caught me in a tide AmG And I caught you Dm Sheltered by the night AmG Red in tooth and red in claw Fmaj7 You saw me in new light AmG And I saw you Dm Sheltered by the night AmG Red in tooth and red in claw
