Intro
F# F#sus4 x4
[Verse]
F# F#sus4 F# F#sus4
Oh morning come bursting the clouds move in
C# C#sus4 C# C#sus4
lift off this blindfold let me see again
B
and bring back the water that your ships will rid
F# C#
in my heart she left a whole.
F# F#sus4 F# F#sus4
The tightrope that I'm walking just sways and ties
C# C#sus4 C# C#sus4
the devil as he's talking with those angel's eyes
B
and I just wanna be there when the lightning strikes
F# C#
and the saints go marching in.
[Chorus]
F# F#sus4 F# F#sus4 C# C#sus4
C# C#sus4
And sing sloooo-ooooo-ooooo-oooow it down
B
through chaos as it swirls
F# C#
it's just us against the world.
[Verse]
F# F#sus4 F# F#sus4
Like a river to a raindrop I lost a friend
C# C#sus4 C# C#sus4
my drunken as a dagger in a lion's den
B
and tonight I know it all has to begin again
F# C#
so whatever you do don't let go.
[Bridge]
F# F#sus4
And if we could float away
F# F#sus4 C# C#sus4
fly up to the surface we'll just start again
C# C#sus4
and lift off with no trouble
B
just erodes us in the rain
just erodes us in the rain
F# C#
just erodes us just erodes us in the rain.
[Chorus]
F# F#sus4 F# F#sus4 C# C#sus4
C# C#sus4
Sing sloooo-ooooo-ooooo-ooooow it down
B F# C#
oh sloooo-ooooo-ooooo-ooooow it down.
