[Verse 1]
Dm Csus Bb
I dig my heels into the dirt
C
'Cause this one's gonna hurt
Dm Csus Bb
Won't let the waves wash me away
C
Is what I always pray
Dm Bb C Dm
In my heart I know you couldn't see
Bb C Dm
In the dark or find your way through me
Dm Csus Bb
Now I'm alone, my hands are numb
C
How do I carry on?
[Chorus]
Bb C
At the turn of the tide
Dm C
I feel this part of me die
Dm Bb C
Am I washed on your shore and barely alive?
[Verse 2]
Dm Csus Bb
Now I'm held hostage in my head
C
With every word you said
Dm Csus Bb
God, all those lessons in my past
C
I spit them out so fast
Dm Bb C Dm
I see myself with you, I act so small
Dm Bb C Dm
I see myself with you, I always crawl
Dm Csus Bb
So someone leave a raft for me
C
The water's getting deep
[Chorus]
Bb C
At the turn of the tide
Dm C
I feel this part of me die
Dm Bb Dm
Am I washed on your shore and barely alive?
[Bridge]
Dm Bb
Here I am in my insecurity
Dm Bb
Here I am in my damaged dignity
Dm Bb
Here I am, you're pulling me in too deep
Dm Bb
Here I am
Dm Bb
Here I am, I'm in the mercy seat
Dm Bb
Here I am, running without my feet
Dm Bb
Here I am, oh what's come over me?
Dm Bb
Here I am
[Verse 3]
Dm Csus Bb
When I was melting in your hand
C
You didn't understand
Dm Csus Bb
You slip through me like grains of sand
C
You still don't understand
Dm Bb C Dm
Overboard, I'm thrown out to see
Dm Bb C Dm
What you are and what I mean to me
Csus Bb C
But I will always have my dream where you can swim to me
[Chorus]
Bb C
At the turn of the tide
Dm C
I feel this part of me die
Dm Bb
I've been on your shore before
C
And it was no waste of time
Bb C
Over my head and in my mind
Dm Bb C Dm
Am I washed on your shore and barely alive?
