This is the acoustic version of the track Rebel Tide from the Embellish EP 
(listen to it here: https://soundcloud.com/thejellyrox/rebel-tide-coffee-house). 

This is an amazing song, and really easy and really fun to play. 
The only thing I would suggest is being careful of the timing 
of the chords. The transitions are syncopated, but once you 
get the hang of it, it's a piece of cake. Enjoy!

Standard Tuning


Verse 1:
                       G           
I'm shooting for the stars to hit the moon 
                 Dsus
Mapping out a course for both my shoes 
               Em               C2                    Dsus    D
I've already practiced acting like there's nothing to it. 
                          G
Try to hold the world together in my mind 
              Dsus
Try to make it snow in mid-July 
                  Em                 C2                   Dsus    D        
Try to prove my heart is worth the blood that's pumping through it 


Pre-chorus:
                  Em     C2       G
Praying like a child on Christmas Eve 
                 Em       C2     G
Father won't you raise the sun early?
                Em      C2       G                Dsus       D 
If you do this one last thing for me I'll be your soldier 


Chorus:
                        Em  C2  G  D          
And it takes you by surprise
               Em  C2  G  D 
Like a rebel tide 
                       Em C2   G                 Dsus    D        
Like lightning from the sky has been searching for you
                          Em  C2  G  D           
And it splits you like a knife
                      Em  C2  G  D          
The moment that it strikes 
           Em  C2     G                    Dsus    D       
When you realize that death was looking for you. 


Verse2:
                  G
I try to keep my hopes above my doubts 
                Dsus
Try to keep my thoughts above my mouth 
               Em             C2                 Dsus     D
I feel like a satellite just dying to leave my orbit 
                 G
I take another shot at faking love 
             Dsus
Miss it by a mile and then some 
                  Em         C2                    Dsus      D
My insides are thirsty for whatever drink you're pouring 


Pre-chorus:
                  Em     C2       G
Praying like a child on Christmas Eve 
                 Em       C2     G
Father won't you raise the sun early?
               Em     C2       G                     Dsus      D 
I ask an awful lot of both my knees just waiting for you 


Chorus 2:
                        Em  C2  G  D          
And it takes you by surprise
               Em  C2  G  D 
Like a rebel tide 
                       Em C2    G                Dsus    D        
Like lightning from the sky has been searching for you
                          Em  C2  G  D           
And it splits you like a knife
                      Em  C2  G  D          
The moment that it strikes 
           Em  C2      G                   Dsus    D       
When you realize that death was looking for you. 
                   Em     C2  G  
He was looking for you
D      Em   C2   G    
Oh...
D      Em   C2   G        Dsus  D
Oh...
                            Em  C2  G   D          
And it takes you by surprise
               Em  C2  G   D 
Like a rebel tide 
                        Em C2     G                 Dsus       D        
Like lightning from the sky has been searching for you
                          Em  C2  G  D           
And it splits you like a knife
                      Em  C2  G  D          
The moment that it strikes 
           Em  C2      G                   Dsus    D       
When you realize that death was looking for you. 
                   Em     C2  G  
He was looking for you
D      Em   C2   G    
Oh...
D    Em          C2        G                   D
Oh...  When you find out death was looking for you

End on: G
