[Intro] | C Dm | C Dm | Bb Dm | C | [Verse]
C                    Dm      C
We stayed afloat for just a while

                   Dm     Bb
We dared to swim alone

                     Dm       C
Dark water left your sinking heart to drown

C                    Dm       C
I know it's much too late to try

                     Dm    Bb
You're never coming home

                          Dm       C
When the tide came in you left without a sound
[Pre-Chorus]
         C         Dm        C
We don't say, what we should say

Dm      Bb                       Dm    C
We get lost beyond the answer we find loneliness

   C          Dm      C                        
We pretend but in the end

Dm      Bb                       Dm    C
We get lost beyond the answer we find loneliness
[Chorus]
  Bb
I never thought to hold you

  F                                     C
I never thought that you might need an anchor

  Bb
I never thought I'd lose you

  F                                     C
I never thought that you might need an anchor
[Verse]
C                     Dm    C
I've seen your face so many times

                         Dm   Bb
You've stood in front of me

                           Dm     C                          
It was all so real, it was all so hard to see

C                     Dm    C     
I'm chasing ghosts and alibis

                 Dm    Bb
Who speak so quietly

                      Dm
I can almost hear you say

      C
Don't cry for me
[Pre-Chorus]
         C         Dm        C
We don't say, what we should say

Dm      Bb                       Dm    C
We get lost beyond the answer we find loneliness

   C          Dm      C                        
We pretend but in the end

Dm      Bb                       Dm    C
We get lost beyond the answer we find loneliness
[Chorus]
  Bb
I never thought to hold you

  F                                    C
I never thought that you might need an anchor

  Bb
I never thought I'd lose you

  F                                    C
I never thought that you might need an anchor
[Bridge]
Gm
Now this is all on me

Bb
Take my apology

Dm                       F        
I never thought it would end like it did here

Now this is all on me

Bb
Take my apology

     C
It's all on me

        C
This is all on me
[Chorus]

I never thought to hold you

I never thought I'd lose you

  F                                    C
I never thought that you might need an anchor
