Intro: [play into/verse/chorus riff 2x]


Verse 1: [play into/verse/chorus riff 2x]
We salute at the thresh-hold of the North Sea in my mind
And a nod to the boredom that drove me here to face the tide


Post-verse: [play Post-Verse riff 4x]
And I swim, I swim, oh swim


Verse 2:[play into/verse/chorus riff 4x]
Did the toe in the ocean, oh how it hardens and it numbs
The rest of me is a version of man, built to collapse into crumbs
And if I hadn't come now to the coast to disappear
I may have died in a landslide of rocks and hopes and fears
