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

And we’ll hold on tight

And if I’m falling, if I fall

Gm
She will catch me
D#
And we’ll hold on tight (x4)
