Intro
E Bsus4 F#11 Emaj7 [2x]

Verse 1
E       Bsus4       F#11            Emaj7
I'm not sure why it always goes downhill
E          Bsus4    F#11             Emaj7
Why broken cisterns never could stay filled
           E   Bsus4         F#11      Emaj7
I've spent ten years singing gravity away
        E              Bsus4            F#11  Emaj7
But the water keeps on falling from the sky

Verse 2
E        Bsus4             F#11               Emaj7
And here tonight while the stars are blacking out
E          Bsus4               F#11        Emaj7
With every hope and dream I've ever had in doubt
          E    Bsus4           F#11                Emaj7
I've spent ten years trying to sing these doubts away
        E              Bsus4           F#11  F#7sus4 F#11
But the water keeps on falling from my eyes

Chorus
    E      Bsus4 F#11    Emaj7
And heaven knows, heaven knows
E               Bsus4        F#11  F#7sus4 F#11
I try to find a cure for the pain
E     Bsus4    F#11            Emaj7
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
E             Bsus4  F#11  E  Bsus4 F#11E Bsus4 F#11
It would be a lie to run away

Verse 3
E           Bsus4 F#11               Emaj7
So blood is fire pulsing through our veins
E            Bsus4      F#11             Emaj7
We're either riders, or fools behind the reigns
          E    Bsus4           F#11          Emaj7
I've spent ten years trying to sing it all away
        E              Bsus4           F#11  F#7sus4 F#11
But the water keeps on falling from my tries

Chorus
    E      Bsus4 F#11    Emaj7
And heaven knows, heaven knows
E               Bsus4        F#11  F#7sus4 F#11
I try to find a cure for the pain
E     Bsus4    F#11            Emaj7
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
E             Bsus4  F#11  E
It would be a lie to run away
  Bsus4  F#11  E
A lie to run
              Bsus4  F#11  E
It would be a lie
              Bsus4  F#11  Emaj7
It would be a lie to run away

              Bsus4  F#11  E  Bsus4 F#11 E
It would be a lie to run away
