[Intro]
D C# D (x4)
[Verse 1]
D Men of old who sailed the seas F# Bringing nations to their knees Bm Turning up the remnants of our campsite G Would never know it kept three people warm at night D Survey the clumsy architectures F# Idly make a few conjectures Bm Scribble some conclusions in a ledger G Never knowing better
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m Bm Like anything you ever come across G Asus4 Before you knew about it it got lost
[Chorus]
F#m Bm It was broken to begin with G A D It was broken to begin with Em A It was like this when we got here
It was broken to begin with
[Interlude]
D C# D (x2)
[Verse 2]
D When the archaeologists arrive F# No proof that we were ever here alive Bm Me and Peter Balkan and you, friend G Until the dream ran out of oxygen D Is this not what you wanted from the sea? F# Is this not what the waves require of me? Bm Isn't this what we suspect we'll see, C A Asus4 A On the day we finally get free?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G Bb And if that day turns out to be today A Maybe that's okay
[Chorus]
F#m Bm It was broken to begin with G A D It was broken to begin with Em It was like that when we got here G A It was like this when we got here
It was broken to begin with

[Outro]
D A Bm F#m G Well, the first thing you learn is how far you can go with no gas in the tank D A G A D And the next thing you learn is how cold it can get at night
