[Verse 1]
B C#m
I've been looking for salvation
E B F#
I've been searching low and high
B C#m
I'm tired of being patient;
E B F#
All this waiting's been a waste of time
[Verse 2]
B C#m
And it's no wonder how we got here;
E B F#
In many ways, I wrote this script
B C#m
By loading all our treasures
E B F#
Into the belly of a sinking ship
[Chorus]
E F# B
I tried to hold you but my hands were cold;
E F# B
I meant to catch you but I moved too slow
E F# B
I hate to leave, but it's time to go
[Verse 3]
B C#m
Well, our love has left us tired;
E B F#
This love has beat us black and blue
B C#m
It's the child that's still in me
E B F#
That wants even though we're through
[Chorus]
E F# B
I wanna hold you but my hands are cold;
E F# B
I meant to catch you but I moved too slow
E F# B
I hate to leave but I know it's time to go
[Verse 4]
B C#m
And I've been looking for salvation
E B F#
I've been searching low and high
B C#m
I forgot that it was waiting
E B F#
In your smile and in your eyes
[Bridge]
E F# B
Down the hills and through the winding roads
E F# B
You hold my mind and I've lost control
E F# B
I never meant to fully disappear
E F# B
Now that you're gone, it has become clear
E F# B
I hope to see you before hell gets cold
E F# B
I'm scared to leave, but I know it's time to go
