[Intro]
Ebm Db x2
[Verse 1]
Ebm
We sail along the shore
We're tethered from the sand
Db
We sail away
[Verse 2]
Ebm
We sail along the shore
Head-up to the east
Db
And sail away
[Verse 3]
Ebm
We sail along the shore
Get up from our hands
Db
Crossings of my heart
Wait list to the government
Ebm
Slow, you see
Db
It's been known to me, my dear
[Chorus]
Ebm
And I don't know how to speak
Silence in the rain
Db
Just surrounding me
You were there
Ebm
Since you know me
Db
Every now and then, I slip away
[Interlude]
Ebm Db x2
[Verse 4]
Ebm
Ey, what do you know her
Not a god-damn thing
What have you got planned
Not a god-damn thing
Db
When will you go hard
When the wall collapses
And the fire burns
Ebm
And the world unravels, whoo
[Verse 5]
Ebm
They gave you idols love
They gave you idols
Db
And told you to close your eyes, ugh
They gave you riffles, son
Ebm
They gave you riffles and told you to close your eyes, whoo
[Verse 6]
Ebm
And now you parachute
With your books in your arms and your paratroops
Db
And the lies that they tell that they pause the truth
Ebm
And you buy us truth to the lies you whoa
But they just want love, ahh, they just want love
They put a couple of arms
Db
Right under your arms, tell you 'secret is ours'
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
[Chorus]
Ebm
And I don't know how to speak
Silence in the rain
Db
Just surrounding me
You were there
Ebm
Since you know me
Db
Every now and then, I slip away
Ebm
And I don't know how to speak
Silence in the rain
Db
Just surrounding me
You were there
Ebm
Since you know me
Db
Every now and then, I slip away
[Instrumental]
Eb Db x2
[Bridge]
Bbm Db
Why must it be so simple?
Ebm
I wish I'd be so sure
Ab Bbm
And not unsettled, in so many ways
Gb Db
And you lie to us, you, you, you
Gb Db
Never fight for us, you, you, you
Gb Db
Shine a light on it, you, you, you
Bbm B
And some day, we'll fall back to the place
[Chorus]
Ebm
Where don't know how to speak
Silence in the rain
Db
Just surrounding me
You were there
Ebm
Since you know me
Db
Every now and then, I slip away
Ebm
And I don't know how to speak
Silence in the rain
Db
Just surrounding me
You were there
Ebm
Since you know me
Db
Every now and then, I slip away
