[Chorus]
D
You give with your right hand
D
You take with your left
D
Submerge me in the water
D
Try to hold my breath
[Verse 1]
D D
My right-hand holds my promise
D D
It's colored a half-hearted white
Bm D
Everybody is a casket
Bm D
For their promise given free
D
Given free
[Chorus]
D
You give with your right hand
D
You take with your left
D
Submerge me in the water
D
Try to hold my breath
[Verse 2]
D D
My left-hand holds your flat head
D D
That was shapen by your crib
Bm D
The cold explores your body
Bm D
Whose imperfection makes perfect
D
Makes perfect
[Chorus]
D
You give with your right hand
D
You take with your left
D
Submerge me in the water
D
Try to hold my breath
[Verse 3]
D D
Against this stubborn, frustrated river
D D
I yaw sharply, hold my breath
Bm D
Semaphoring with both my hands
Bm D
A perfect promise, imperfectly
D
Imperfectly
