[Intro]
Bb
[Verse]
Bb F/A
Take a breath; take a long look around
Gm
Before you step
Eb
'Cause the tide is coming.
Bb
Swallowing the ground
F/A F Gm
And there's no way to tell if we will drown tonight,
Eb6 Ebmaj7
Or we'll be found tonight.
Bb F/A
Come in close; if the current gets us,
Gm
Then it gets us both.
Eb
And we can't wait here anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm7 Ebmaj7
So if the waves come, let 'em take us
Bb Fsus4 F
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath
[Chorus]
Gm7 Eb Bb F
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
Gm7 Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us
Bb F/A
But we can't go back to the way it used to be.
Gm Eb
[Verse]
Bb F/A
Take it in; take a good look at
Gm
What it might have been.
Eb Bb
As we're swept into the water from the shore,
F/A Gm
Because there's no way they can tell us that we can't have more
Eb
Because we can have more.
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm7 Ebmaj7
As the waves come, let 'em take us
Bb Fsus4 F
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath
[Chorus]
Gm7 Eb Bb F
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
Gm7 Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us
Bb F/A
No, we can't go back to the way it used to be.
[Bridge]
Eb Bb F/A Eb
So certain, where it would take us
Bb F/A Gm7
So sure that we were never lost;
F/A Bb Eb Eb
To notice whether we'll be drowned tonight or found tonight...
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm7 Ebmaj7
So as the waves come, let 'em take us
Bb Fsus4 F
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath
Gm7 Ebmaj7
It takes the shape of who will save us.
Bb
When it leaves it's hard to know,
Fsus4 F
But I will not let you go.
[Chorus]
Gm7 Eb Bb F
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
Gm7 Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us
Bb F/A
No we can't go back to the way it used to be.
Gm Eb Bb F/A
Gm7 Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us
Bb F/A Eb
No we can't go back to the way it used to be.
