SONGS OF INNOCENCE (2014) | A | C#m | E | B | | A | C#m | E | B | B |
                A            C#m
Every breaking wave on the shore

           E                        B
tells the next one there’ll be one more.

                    A            C#m
And every gambler knows that to lose

     E                       B
is what you’re really there for.

              A            C#m
Summer I was fearlessness,

        E                    B
now I speak into an answer phone.

                  A             C#m
Like every falling leaf on the breeze,

 E                         B      B
winter wouldn’t leave it alone, alone.

           A   C#m
If you go?

           E                 B
If you go your way and I go mine.

           A  C#m
Are we so?

           E                    B
Are we so helpless against the tide?

            A                C#m
Baby every dog on the street

                     E            B
knows that we’re in love with defeat.

                     A                 C#m
Are we ready to be swept off our feet?

           E     B               A     C#m  E  B
And stop chasing every breaking wave..

               A             C#m
Every sailor knows that the sea

        E              B
is a friend made enemy.

                       A                 C#m
And every shipwrecked soul knows what it is

    E                  B
to live without intimacy.

                       A               C#m
I thought I heard the captain’s voice,

              E                 B
it’s hard to listen while you preach.

                   A            C#m
Like every broken wave on the shore, 

  E                       B       B
this is as far as I could reach..

          A   C#m
If you go?

           E                 B
If you go your way and I go mine.

           A  C#m
Are we so?

           E                    B
Are we so helpless against the tide?

            A                C#m
Baby every dog on the street

                     E            B
knows that we’re in love with defeat.

                     A                 C#m
Are we ready to be swept off our feet?

           E     B               F#m     A  E  B
And stop chasing every breaking wave..

     F#m                                 A
The sea knows where are the rocks, and drowning is no sin.

  E                              B
You know where my heart is, the same place that yours has been.

 F#m                              A                     E
We know that we fear to win, and so we end before we begin,

             B
before we begin..

If you go your way and I go mine.

           A  C#m
Are we so?

           E                    B
Are we so helpless against the tide?

            A                C#m
Baby every dog on the street

                     E            B
knows that we’re in love with defeat..

                     A                 C#m
Are we ready to be swept off our feet?

And stop chasing every breaking wave..
