Intro
Cm A# D#
[Verse 1]
Cm A# D#
We built a ship and we followed the river bed
Cm
And we’re running from our fears
A# D#
As we push for steam ahead
Cm A#
She moans just like a whale
D#
Between the river and the rest
Cm
And the cracks that are in the hull
A# D#
Are the cracks in all of us
[Pre-Chorus]
G# G# Cm
And we’ll hold on tight
Cm
And I’m married to the dream
A# D#
That someday I’ll feel the earth again
Cm A# D#
And the ground beneath my feet would fix the bones of a broken man
G# G# Cm
And we’ll hold on tight
Cm Gm G# A# Cm Fm
I will hold on tight
[Chorus]
G# A#
And if I’ll fall, but if I’ll fall
Cm A# D#
She will catch me
Fm G#
And we’ll hold on tight
G# A#
And if I’ll fall, but if I’ll fall
Cm A# D#
She will catch me
Fm G#
And we’ll hold on tight
Gm A# Cm A# D#
And we’ll hold on tight
[Verse 2]
Cm
And we’ve built a ship
A# D#
And she cradles us in her arms
Cm
And the fright never stops
A# D#
It just settle on her heart
[Pre-Chorus]
G# G# Cm
And we’ll hold on tight
Cm
And we’ll barge to sea
A# D#
And we’ll search the ocean for
Cm
And we’ll find ourselves a home
A# D#
That no one’s ever seen before
G# G# Cm
And we’ll hold on tight
Cm Gm G# A# Cm Fm
Till there’s nothing else
[Chorus]
G# A#
And if I’ll fall, but if I’ll fall
Cm A# D#
She will catch me
Fm G#
And we’ll hold on tight

She will catch me
Fm G#
And we’ll hold on tight
Gm A# Cm
And we’ll hold on tight

[Outro]
G# A# Fm
And if I’m falling, if I fall
Cm
She will catch me

And we’ll hold on tight
G# A# Fm
And if I’m falling, if I fall
Cm
She will catch me
G#
And we’ll hold on tight (x4)
