Verse 1

Dm                   Gm                F                       Bbmaj7 (Am7)
Somewhere out of the ashes I've always thought I'd let you know
Dm                  Gm           F                   E7    (Am7)
Oh deep down in the end I always knew I'd let you go

Bbmaj7     (F) Gm               (F) Dm  (Am7) Bbmaj7 (Am7)
I cover the ocean seeking water for you, only you
Bbmaj7              (F)     Gm     (F)Dm  (Am7) Bbmaj7  (stop)
Drowned in it's land to the shore for you, only you


Chorus
                                            (riff)
But then I found it was a trick of the light
Just somebody who was catching my eye
But then I found it was a trick of the light
When your shadow came into my sight


Verse 2 (Same chords as verse 1)

Somehow in the end I always knew I'd let you go
I forgot the inside of my soul was just painted with gold
Buried alive with my heart by my side for you, only you
Set fire to my soul, still if we go it's for you, only you

CHORUS

BRIDGE (Scatting)
Bbmaj7   (F) Gm   (F)  Dm   (Am7) Bbmaj7    (stop)
