(Verse 1) 

E                        B              C#m                           
Paint a picture as we're walking on the street
                    A 
a collage of paint, cement, 
          E                   B               C#m                           
and steam. Just like Deja Vu, still life in a dream. 
                           A
There you stood watching 
                           E    *** {B , C#m , A}
as the rain poured down on me.

E                    B                       C#m        
We were once a canvas, so bright and full of color.
     A
 Now we've become Dorian 
E                                B                               
Grey where the frame is bent and cracked. 
                       C#   Abm     
I am too, in fact I've been that 
A   E     B       
way since May.


(Chorus) 

        A6    A6    B                
Let the waves crash down. 
C#m              A            A6   A6 B     C#m
They'll swallow all of us and wash a-way          these 
  A                    A6 A6 B  C#m                  
memories we tried to s-------------ave. 
E       B           E         *** {B , C#m , A}
Was it enough to be brave?

(Verse 2) 

E                      B        C#m         A     
How did we get so damn far by ignoring everything? 
E
    You we're the sand beneath 
       B                              
my feet, eroded by the tide. 
     C#m Ab   A  E  B       
It's too hard to believe.

Let the waves crash down.

E       B           E         B C#m A 
Was it enough to be brave?

All I ever wanted was a cool, dry place to rest my bones. Not to drift along 
                               A
with this current forever, not have to sink alone.
E                                 B                              C#m
