[Verse 1]
C Em
Every breaking wave on the shore,
G D
tells the next one there’ll be one more.
C Em
And every gambler knows that to lose,
G D
is what you’re really there for.
C Em
Summer I was fearless,
G D
now I speak into an answer phone.
C Em
Like every falling leaf on the breeze,
G D D
winter wouldn’t leave it alone, alone.
[Chorus]
C Em
If you go?
G D
If you go your way and I go mine.
C Em
Are we so?
G D
Are we so helpless against the tide?
C Em
Baby every dog on the street,
G D
knows that we’re in love with defeat.
C Em
Are we ready to be swept off our feet?
G D C Em G D
And stop chasing, every breaking wave..
[Verse 2]
C Em
Every sailor knows that the sea,
G D
is a friend made enemy.
C Em
And every shipwrecked soul, knows what it is,
G D
to live without intimacy.
C Em
I thought I heard the captain’s voice,
G D
it’s hard to listen while you preach.
C Em
Like every broken wave on the shore,
G D D
this is as far as I could reach..
[Chorus]
C Em
If you go?
G D
If you go your way and I go mine.
C Em
Are we so?
G D
Are we so helpless against the tide?
[Verse 3]
C Em
Baby every dog on the street,
G D
knows that we’re in love with defeat.
C Em
Are we ready to be swept off our feet?
G D C Em G D
And stop chasing, every breaking wave..
C Em
The sea knows where are the rocks, and drowning is no sin.
G D
You know where my heart is, the same place that yours has been.
C Em G
We know that we fear to win, and so we end before we begin,
D
before we begin..
[Instrumental]

knows that we’re in love with defeat..

Are we ready to be swept off our feet?

And stop chasing, every breaking wave..
