Chords

[Intro] G C G C [Verse]
G              Em            C
The waves crash over me again and again

G           Em              C
There's a storm approaching land

G          Em             C
And I'm so far out in the undertow

G         Em             C
Blindly praying for the sand
[Chorus]
Em         C                    G      D
I built a boat that caused my sinking

Em          D              C
Nothing to blame but my own hands

Em         C                  G      D
The final lifeboat has been taken

Em          D              C
And I find I'm playing with the band

      G     Em     C
This song for you

      G     Em     C
This song for you
[Verse]
G              Em            C
When we first met I held a hammer in my hands

G          Em            C
A box of nails I used before

G              Em       C
Turns out the woodshed now is empty

G              Em            C
I didn't know the job in store
[Chorus]
Em               C                 G       D
I thought the plans I drew were carefully drawn

Em   D              C
But alas, I'm just a fool

Em           C              G   D
And now I'm drowning in my sorrow

Em          D                    C
Like when a builder blames his tools

          G     Em     C
And sings his song for you

G          Em     C
Singing his song for you
[Verse]
G              Em        C
"Find what you love and let it kill you"

G            Em              C
But I have always been unsure

G              Em   C
If this was spoken by a mad man

G         Em            C
Or by a doctor with a cure
[Chorus]
Em         C                  G  D
So as I am fighting with the ocean

Em          D              C
Too soon to tell if I'll survive

Em      C             G  D
Will I meet you underwater?

Em          D              C
Will we be swallowed by the tide?

              G     Em     C
And drown in this song

G     Em     C
Drown in this song for you
