[Intro]
F Am C/G G
F Am C/G G
[Verse]
F Am
Every breaking wave on the shore
C/G G
Tells the next one there’ll be one more
F Am
And every gambler knows that to lose
C/G G
Is what you’re really there for
F Am
Summer I was fearless
C/G G
Now I speak into an answer phone
F Am
Like every falling leaf on the breeze
C/G G G7
Winter wouldn’t leave it alone - alone
[Chorus]
F Am
If you go
C/G G
If you go your way and I go mine
F Am
Are we so
C/G G
Are we so helpless against the tide
F Am
Baby every dog on the street
C/G G
Knows that we’re in love with defeat
F Am
Are we ready to be swept off our feet
C/G G
And stop chasing every breaking wave
F Am C/G G
[Verse]
F Am
Every sailor knows that the sea
C/G G
Is a friend made enemy
F Am
And every shipwrecked soul knows what it is
C/G G
To live without intimacy
F Am
I thought I heard the captain’s voice
C/G G
It’s hard to listen while you preach
F Am
Like every broken wave on the shore
C/G G
This is as far as I could reach
[Chorus]
F Am
If you go
C/G G
If you go your way and I go mine
F Am
Are we so
C/G G
Are we so helpless against the tide
F Am
Baby every dog on the street
C/G G
knows that we’re in love with defeat
F Am
Are we ready to be swept off our feet
C/G G
And stop chasing every breaking wave
F Am C/G G
[Bridge]
F
The sea knows where are the rocks
Am
And drowning is no sin
C/G
You know where my heart is
G
the same place that yours has been
F
We know that we fear to win and
Am C/G G
so we end before we begin before we begin
F Am C/G G
[Chorus]
F Am
If you go
C/G G
If you go your way and I go mine
F Am
Are we so
C/G G
Are we so helpless against the tide
F Am
Baby every dog on the street
C/G G
Knows that we’re in love with defeat
F Am
Are we ready to be swept off our feet
C/G G
And stop chasing every breaking wave
