Am   E7    Am            E7
High tide, summer in the city
Am                   E7
The kids are looking pretty
Dm
But isn't it a pity
         Am   E7      Am         E7
That the sunshine is followed by thunder
    Am                E7
And thoughts of going under
Dm            F7
And is it any wonder
         C                  E
When the sea calling out to me
                   Am    Am/G F
I seem to spend my whole life running
                      C
From people who would be
                     E
The death of you and me
                      Am    Am/G
'Cause I can feel the storm clouds
F             Fm
Sucking up my soul

No one has the answer

I try to face the day now in a new way

The bottom of the bottom

I'm watching my TV

I see another new day dawning

It's rising over me, with my mortality

Sucking up my soul
