Intro C Am Em X2

EmI (022000@1)am the deck, you are the sea, 
Em (022000@1)                                                  C (x32010@1)Am (x02210@1)         EmI (022000@1)am the lights on the water, you are moving underneath, underneath me. 
EmI (022000@1)am the rail, you are the sea, 
Em (022000@1)                                                             C (x32010@1)Am (x02210@1)         EmI (022000@1)don't know what I'm looking at, don't know if it's even happening underneath me.

Am (x02210@1)                C (x32010@1)                        G (320003@1)   Am (x02210@1)               EmIt (022000@1)doesn't take much. It doesn't take much to ruin a moment like this. 
                G (320003@1)                  Em (022000@1)                  
They curse your name, they whisper, "please, please, please." 
                        G (320003@1)                                                   EmThey're (022000@1)yelling at your waves, "Stop crashing, just please bring her home to me!" 
                 G (320003@1)                                EmPeople (022000@1)can be so mean, they call you, "The Drowning Machine".

G (320003@1)  C (x32010@1)  Am (x02210@1)  Em (022000@1)Em (022000@1)  C (x32010@1)   Am (x02210@1)EmI'm (022000@1)the entertainment, you are the sea, 
Em (022000@1)                                      C (x32010@1)Am (x02210@1)        EmI (022000@1)am the survivor, you didn't even notice me underneath.
Em (022000@1)I am the wreck, you are the sea, 
Em (022000@1)                                                       C (x32010@1)Am (x02210@1)         EmI (022000@1)yelled your name cross the water, you just hummed a factory underneath me.

Am (x02210@1)                 C (x32010@1)                       G (320003@1)   Am (x02210@1)               EmIt (022000@1)doesn't take much. It doesn't take much to ruin a moment like this. 
            G (320003@1)               Em (022000@1) 
I call your name, I whisper, "please, please, please." 
                    G (320003@1)                                                    Em (022000@1) 
Not yelling at your waves to stop crashing, just please, bring her home to me. 
                     G (320003@1)                                Em (022000@1) 
But people can be so mean, they call you, "The Drowning Machine."

The Drowning Machine.
