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

And we’ll hold on tight

And we’ll hold on tight

And if I’m falling, if I fall

She will catch me

And we’ll hold on tight
D E Bm
And if I’m falling, if I fall
F#m
She will catch me
D
And we’ll hold on tight (x4)
