Intro - C, G, Dsus/F#, Em repeat once
Verse 1 -
C G Dsus/F# Em
I'm not sure why it always goes downhill
C G Dsus/F# Em
Why broken cisterns never could stay filled
I've spent
Chorus -
C G Dsus/F# Em
Ten years singing gravity away
C G D/F# Em
But the water keeps on falling from the sky
Verse 2 -
C G Dsus/F# Em
So here tonight while the stars are blacking out
C G Dsus/F# Em
With every hope and dream I've ever had in doubt
I've spent
Chorus -
C G Dsus/F# Em
Ten years trying to sing these doubts away
C G D/F#
But the water keeps on falling from my eyes
C G Dsus/F# Em
And heaven knows, heaven knows
C G D/F#
I tried to find a cure for the pain
C G Dsus/F# Em
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
C G Dsus/F# C
Dsus/F#, C, G, Dsus/F#
It would be a lie to run away
Verse 3 -
C G
So blood is fire
Dsus/F# Em
pulsing through our veins
C G Dsus/F# Em
We're either riders, or fools behind the reigns
I've spent
Chorus -
C G Dsus/F# Em
Ten years trying to sing it all away
C G D/F#
But the water keeps on falling from my tries
C G Dsus/F# Em
And heaven knows, heaven knows
C G D/F#
I tried to find a cure for the pain
C G Dsus/F# Em
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
C G Dsus/F# C
It would be a lie to run away
C G Dsus/F# C
It would be a lie
C G Dsus/F#
It would be a lie to run away
Bridge -
C G
It keeps on falling
Dsus/F# Em
It keeps on falling
C G
It keeps on falling
Dsus/F# Em
It keeps on falling
C G D/F#
And the water keeps on falling from my eyes
End -
C G Dsus/F# Em
And heaven knows, heaven knows
C G D/F#
I tried to find a cure for the pain
C G Dsus/F# Em
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
C G Dsus/F# C G
C
It would be a lie to run away
C G Dsus/F# C
It would be a lie to run away
C G Dsus/F# C G DsusF# (Don't know last chord that it ends on)
It would be a lie to run away
