Intro
F# A#m C# G#
[Verse 1]
F# A#m C#
Staring down the barrel of a hundred tons
(We're on the way)
G# F# A#m C#
It might be getting older, but the night's still young
(We're on the way)
G# F# A#m C#
We never, never give up on the lost boy life
(We're on the way)
G# F# A#m C# G#
So here we are, escaping from the world outside
(We're on the way)
[Pre-Chorus]
F# A#m G#
Oh, what would your mother say if she could see what we're doing now?
F# A#m G#
Oh, what would your mother say if she could hear what we talk about?
[Chorus]
F# C# G# A#m
The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again
F# C#
The waves are crashing down on you and me
G# A#m
I'll see you on the other side
F# C# G# A#m
Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
F# C# G# A#m
Caught up in, caught up in the waves
F# A#m C#
[Verse 2]
G# F# A#m C#
Suddenly we're fallin' through the twilight zone
(We're on the way)
G# F# A#m C#
Watch the party playing out in slow motion
(We're on the way)
G# F# A#m C#
So tie a ribbon 'round my arm and throw me in
(We're on the way)
G# F# A#m C# G#
Is it an apocalypse or nihilism on your lips? We sink or swim
(We're on the way)
[Pre-Chorus]
F# A#m G#
Oh, what would your mother say if she could see what we're doing now?
F# A#m G#
Oh, what would your mother say if she could hear what we talk about? (Hey)
[Chorus]
F# C# G# A#m
The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again
F# C#
The waves are crashing down on you and me
G# A#m
I'll see you on the other side
F# C# G# A#m
Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
F# C# G# A#m
Caught up in, caught up in the waves
F# A#m G# x2
[Bridge]
F# A#m
The air hit me on the way out
G#
Did it make me more sober or make me more drunk?
F# A#m G#
I couldn't quite remember the vision of you and of me
F# A#m
The air hit me on the way out
G#
Did it make me more sober or make me more drunk?
F# A#m G#
I couldn't quite remember the vision of you and of me
[Chorus]
F# C# G# A#m
The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again
F# C#
The waves are crashing down on you and me
G# A#m
I'll see you on the other side
F# C# G# A#m
Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
F# C# G# A#m
Caught up in, caught up in the wave
[Outro]
F# C# G#
They're crashing down, they're crashing down, oh
F# C#
They're crashing down on you and me
G#
I'll see you on the other side
