Intro
B E B
B E B
[Verse 1]
B E B
See that shoreline
B E B
At the end of the line
B E B
Holding the ocean
B E B
Hostage again
{Pre Chorus}
A E
Oh how much does she want this time
A E
Can we ever get her to change her mind?
B E B
Don’t feign your affection
B E B
Don’t hide your gloom
B E B
Be good to your sister
B E B
And your half brother too
A E
One day they’ll be gone with all your friends
A E
They’ll be no one left to hear you then
[Chorus]
F#
In the morning
G F# A F#
With the sun in the dew
F#
In the morning
G F# A F#
Just like tears made of glue
F# G F# A F# F#7
Holding all the world in place just for you
[Verse 2]
B E B
Just let it go
B E B
The sun shines in vain
B E B
Make-believe for a little while
B E B
But don’t get carried away
[Pre Chorus]
A E
I’ve never been much of a salesman
A E
I don’t know how to make you pay attention
[Chorus]
F#
Maybe one day
G F# A F#
All alone in the yard
F#
Maybe one day
G F# A F#
Slip a note past the guard
F#
He’s a half-wit
G F# A F# F#7
But he’s trying so hard
[Verse 3]
B E B
To be all that you wanted
B E B
To have nothing but fame
B E B
But it’s piled up into something
B E B
That’s impossible to face
[Pre Chorus]
A E
And now you’re trapped here forevermore
A E
Heat on the hand of sins that’s far behind the door
[Chorus]
F#
Break your back
G F# A F#
Carry your love into town
F# G F# A F#
Maybe that’s what they meant when they said “settle down”
F# G F# A F# F#7
Making maps of all the cracks in the ground
