[Intro] F Am Dm F Am Dm F Am Dm F Am Bb F [Verse 1]
    F
You lost your feeling for the waves

Dm
Before we ran aground

Bb
And you lost thirteen men to the waves

C
We watched them all go down

F
Find you babbling in the sand there

Dm
Trying to find the thread

         Bb
Spend an hour or so beside you

C
Cradling your head
[Chorus]
Dm   C               Bb
It's time for you to go

         C              F   Am  Dm  F  Am  Dm
But you never lost your glow
[Verse 2]
    F
You lost a lot of sleep

Dm
Before the fever broke

        Bb
And you found a kingdom by the fire

C
Rising in the smoke

          F
Leave you here, or let the ocean

Dm
Claim you for its own?

         Bb
Keep you here, or tithe you to the tides

C
To die here all alone?
[Chorus]
Dm        C                               Bb
Breathing through your visions, soft and slow

    C               Dm
You never lost your glow
[Bridge]
                 C
Your light, your signal

Dm
Fifteen did respond

     Am               Dm
Just me left now, and you, about

   Bb
To learn what lies beyond
[Verse 3]
        F
When we wake up from the big dreams

   Dm
Of empires in the surf

           Bb
If there's nothing left but water

         C
Then let water be enough

F
Thirteen gone, one vanished

Dm
You well on your way

 Bb
Adrift for half your life

C
Headed home today
[Chorus]
Dm C          Bb
"Be still and know"

    C               F
You never lost your glow
[Outro] F Am Dm F Am Bb
