Intro: BbVerse:
BbF
Take a breath; take a long look around
Gm
Before you step
Eb
'Cause the tide is coming.
Bb
Swallowing the ground
FFGm
And there's no way to tell if we will drown tonight,
Eb6Ebmaj7
Or we'll be found tonight.
BbF
Come in close; if the current gets us,
Gm
Then it gets us both.
Eb
And we can't wait here anymore
Pre-Chorus:
Gm7Ebmaj7
So if the waves come, let 'em take us
BbFsus4F
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath
Chorus:
Gm7EbBbF
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
Gm7Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us
BbF
But we can't go back to the way it used to be.
Interlude: GmEbVerse:
BbF
Take it in; take a good look at
Gm
What it might have been.
EbBb
As we're swept into the water from the shore,
FGm
Because there's no way they can tell us that we can't have more
Eb
Because we can have more.
Pre-Chorus:
Gm7Ebmaj7
As the waves come, let 'em take us
BbFsus4F
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath
Chorus:
Gm7EbBbF
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
Gm7Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us
BbF
No, we can't go back to the way it used to be.
Bridge:
EbBbFEb
So certain, where it would take us
BbFGm7
So sure that we were never lost;
FBbEbEb
To notice whether we'll be drowned tonight or found tonight...
Pre-Chorus:
Gm7Ebmaj7
So as the waves come, let 'em take us
BbFsus4F
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath
Gm7Ebmaj7
It takes the shape of who will save us.
Bb
When it leaves it's hard to know,
Fsus4F
But I will not let you go.
Chorus:
Gm7EbBbF
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
Gm7Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us
BbF
No we can't go back to the way it used to be.
GmEbBbFGm7Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us
BbFEb
No we can't go back to the way it used to be.
