Am C Dm Am
Feel the ocean as it breathes, shivering teeth

See the mountains where they meet, smotherin me

[VERSE 2]
Am C Dm Am
I find comfort in the sound, and the shape of the heart
C Dm Am
How it echoes through the chest from under the ground
C Dm Am
As the hills turn into holes, I fill them with gold
C Dm
Heavy stones fear no weather
[CHORUS]
Fmaj7 Am G
And from the rain comes a river running wild
That will create an empire for you
Fmaj7 Am G
Illuminate, there's a river running wild that will create
Fmaj7 Am
an empire for you
G
an empire for two
Fmaj7 Am
an empire for you
G
an empire for two
[VERSE 3]
Am C Dm Am
And I paint your body black, I hide in your hair
C Dm Am
And you're staring back at me like I wasn't there
C Dm Am
As our bodies become stills, we welcome the fear
C Dm
Heavy stones fear no weather
[CHORUS 2]
Fmaj7 Am G
And from the rain comes a river running wild
That will create an empire for you
Fmaj7 Am G
Illuminate, there's a river running wild that will create
Fmaj7 Am
an empire for you
G
an empire for two
Fmaj7 Am
an empire for you
G
