Mayday Parade

You Be The Anchor That Keeps My Feet On The Ground

by Mayday Parade
Mayday Parade

Biography:

Mayday Parade was born in 2005 when two popular Tallahassee bands, Kid Named Chicago and Defining Moment, decided to merge and form one group. Both bands had been friends for a long time but they each seemed to have different kind of holdups. They pooled their resources, booted out the undedicated members and decided to take the good from each band and move forward. Armed with a dynamic lead singer Derek Sanders of Defining Moment, Mayday Parade explodes with energy and personality.

[Verse 1]
Cadd9 G Gsus2 Em/D
And honestly, I have been begging for answers
Dsus4 Cadd9
That you and only you can give to me
G Gsus2 Em/D
A voice crying loud I've been crying for days now
Dsus4 Cadd9
And as I start to run, I stop to breathe
(And I was nearly scared to death)
G Gsus2
And I was nearly scared to death
Em/D
(Why you left in paragraphs)
Dsus4
Why you left in paragraphs
Cadd9
(The words were nearly over us)
G Gsus2
The words were nearly over us
Em/D Dsus4
You stop and turn and grab your bags

[Chorus 1]
G
And I'll be here by the ocean
Just waiting for proof that there's
Cadd9
sunsets and silhouette dreams
Gsus2 Em/D
All my sand castles fall
Gsus2 G
like the ashes of cigarettes
Cadd9 Gsus2
And every waves drags me to sea
G
I could stand here for hours
Just to ask God the question
Cadd9
"Is everyone here make-believe?"
Gsus2 Em/D
With a tear in His voice
Gsus2 G
He said, "Son, that's the question."
Cadd9
Does this deafening silence
Dsus4
mean nothing to no one but me?

[Verse 2]
(Play the above interlude lead for the first half of the Verse 2)
Cadd9
As hours move to minutes
And minutes take longer to break
I will be desperately awaiting
But my tongue won't fall apart
And we've been sitting here for hours
All alone and in the dark
Cadd9 G Gsus2
So let me think of to word it
Em/D Dsus4
Is it too soon to say 'perfect'?
Cadd9 G Gsus2
If I could find another thirty minutes somewhere
Em/D
I'm sure everything would find me
Dsus4
All that's left is just to sing

[Chorus 2]
G
And I'll be here by the ocean
Just waiting for proof that there's
Em/D
sunsets and silhouette dreams
Cadd9
All my sand castles fall
Gsus2
like the ashes of cigarettes
Dsus4 Em/D Gsus2
And every waves drags me to sea
G
I could stand here for hours
Just to ask God the question
Em/D
"Is everyone here make-believe?"
Cadd9
With a tear in His voice
He said, "Son, that's the question."
Dsus4
Does this deafening silence
mean nothing to no one but me?

[Bridge]
Cadd9 G
And you'll sing to me sweet until then
Cadd9 G
I may never sail Virginia again
Cadd9 Dsus4
Alas this current moves slow for me
D#maj7-5 A7sus4 Cadd9
this much you must know... we'll meet again
Cadd9
And I'll, I'll have you know I'm scared to death
Cadd9
Tell me once again that you
Em/D Gsus2
will love me till the death
G
And should I die, you swear
Dsus4 Cadd9
that you will come for me
Em/D Gsus2 G Dsus4
As I fade away, you reach out your arms
Cadd9
(And please don't let me go)
Em/D Gsus2 G Dsus4 Cadd9
And please don't let me go
Cadd9
(And please don't let me go)
Em/D Gsus2 G Dsus4 Cadd9
And please don't let me go
