[Verse 1]
D
We left under moonlight
Bm
We went with the breeze
A
I bet on your blue eyes
G
You set for my green
D
We moved with the water
Bm
The tumble and sway
A
The slow dance gets harder
G
As level shorelines fade
D
So now I'm out drifting . . . away
Bm
What can I say
A
You're barely listening, asleep in
G
The shade of tidal waves
[Chorus]
A
Someone throw a lifeline
D G
I don't want to drown
A D G
I can't hold you closer without just sinking down
A D
Once I'm safe from the deep you're the waves at my feet that just keep
G
pulling me out
A D
By the power of the moonlight, when the tide comes around
[Verse 2]
D
You think that I worry . . . about
Bm
What I can't see but fear
A
The truth's always blurry . . . somehow
G
We still hear these heartbeats clear
D Bm
And yours might be steady . . . now, yeah yours could be true
A
Mine's always heavy with doubt
G
Like the current dragging on you
[Chorus]
G
Someone throw a lifeline
D G
I don't want to drown
A D G
I can't hold you closer without just sinking down
A D
Once I'm safe from the deep you're the waves at my feet that just keep
G
pulling me out
A D
By the power of the moonlight, when the tide comes around
[Bridge]
G A
Oh when it's gone
D G
I'm right back where we start
A D G
Waves from so long ago come and crash on my heart
A D A G
All that we were and I dreamed you to be
A
Shines so bright on the deep and darkened sea
[Chorus]
Bm A
So someone throw a lifeline
D G
I don't want to drown
A D G
I can't hold you closer without just sinking down
A
Once I'm safe from the deep you're the waves at my feet
D G
that just keep pulling me out
A Bm
By the power of the moonlight, when the tide comes around
G A D
By the power of the moonlight, when the tide comes around
