Am       C             Dm                 Am
Feel the ocean as it breathes, shivering teeth

         C                    Dm              Am
See the mountains where they meet, smothering me

        C                  Dm                      Am
As the wind fends off the waves, I count down the days

        C              Dm
Heavy stones, fear no weather
[Interlude]: Am C Dm x2
Am      C              Dm                          Am
I find comfort in the sound, and the shape of the heart

       C                    Dm                    Am
How it echoes through the chest, from under the ground

        C               Dm                      Am
As the hills turn into holes, I fill them with gold

        C              Dm
Heavy stones, fear no weather

F                 Am                      G
And from the rain, comes a river running wild that will create

               F              Am                        G
An empire for you, illuminate, there's a river running wild that will create

             F    Am            G
An empire for you, an empire for two

             F    Am            G
An empire for you, an empire for two

Am     C                Dm                   Am
And I paint your body black, I hide in your hair

             C             Dm                  Am
And you're staring back at me, like I wasn't there

        C              Dm                    Am
As our bodies become stills, we welcome the fear

        C              Dm
Heavy stones, fear no weather

F                 Am                      G
And from the rain, comes a river running wild that will create

               F              Am                        G
An empire for you, illuminate, there's a river running wild that will create

             F    Am            G
An empire for you, an empire for two

             F    Am            G
An empire for you, an empire for two
[Interlude]: F Am G x2
F             Am                      G
From the rain, comes a river running wild that will create

               F              Am                        G
An empire for you, illuminate, there's a river running wild that will create

             F    Am            G
An empire for you, an empire for two

             F    Am            G
An empire for you, an empire for two
