   D#7   F    Gm   Bb   Cm  Csus2


Verse:
D#7           F                 Gm    Bb
We can see so far across the sky
D#7           F
We can see so far from here
Gm               Bb
Across the water
D#7            F             Gm    Bb
We can see the tops of the trees
     D#7              F        Gm    Bb
And I hold my arms out steadily
       D#7          F      Cm  Csus2 Cm    Csus2 Cm
And I'm keeping my fist secure


Chorus:
  Gm      Bb       D#7    F
To keep me from sinking
  Gm                   Bb       D#7    F    
To keep me from falling to sleep
    Gm       Bb     D#7    F
Without even a wonder
        Gm                   Bb     D#7    F
In this evening, just fading away

Interlude: Cm-Csus2-Cm-Csus2-D#7-F


Verse:
F         Gm                 Bb  D#7  
And if the water comes up to our necks
         Gm     Bb          D#7
And it's easier just to give in
       Gm              Bb                 D#7
I will remember what I learned before the flooding came
       Gm                Bb          Cm     Csus2   Cm
I will remember who I was before the walls gave way.


Pre-chorus: F--Gm-Bb-D#7


Chorus:
  Gm      Bb       D#7    F
To keep me from sinking
  Gm                   Bb       D#7    F    
To keep me from falling to sleep
    Gm       Bb     D#7    F
Without even a wonder
        Gm                   Bb     D#7    F
In this evening, just fading away
        Gm                   Bb     D#7    F
In this evening, just fading away
