E A B C#m A E6 D A [Intro] E A B x2 [Verse 1]
         C#m                B A
There's a sky when you run

                              E
And there's a sky when you surrender

                   (E)
You're so warm, the tangle of your thorns

        C#m                     B A
But your hands, they know it only hurts

                       E
When in the hour you remember you're a child

      (E)
In the tangle of your mind
[Pre-Chorus]
    A        E6     F#m     E       B
You light up from a whisper telling how

  A     E6       F#m   E       B
I never found the way around myself

             E   A B
I listen now
E A B [Verse 2]
          C#m            A
I look for waking worlds

                            E
And no restraint in singing voices of my friends

  (E)
A rising with no end

         C#m                       A
Along the sweep of words, I run my eyes

                             E
And see my old skin floating gently somewhere far

 (E)
I wonder who we are
[Pre-Chorus]
  A        E6     F#m     E       B    (E B)
A light up from a whisper telling how

  A      E6     F#m         E        B    (E B)
I never knew the captain's skill but oh

             E
I wonder now
[Chorus]
F#m      B                       E
Slowly rivers turn when love is out

F#m      B
Slowly rivers turn
[Post-Chorus]
  A        E6     F#m     E       B
A light up from a whisper telling how

  A     E6       F#m      E      B
I never found my way down to the shore

             E   A B
I listen now
E A B [Bridge]
    D                      A            E
And I don't want to be the yeller of my longings

D                      A            E
I don't want to be the sailor of my past

    D                      A                   E
And I don't want to be the band that plays the wedding

          F#m                    B
With a new leaving song on their mind

            E
I gotta try
[Chorus]
F#m      B                       E
Slowly rivers turn when love is out

F#m      B
Slowly rivers turn
[Pre-Chorus]
  A        E6     F#m     E       B    (E B)
A light up from a whisper telling how

  A      E6     F#m         E        B
I never knew the captain's skill but oh

             E   B
I get it now
E B [Interlude] A E D A E D A E F#m B [Outro]
    A        E6     F#m     E       B
You light up from a whisper telling how

  A     E6       F#m  E       B
I never found my way around myself
