Bb

Verse

Bb                              F/A
Take a breath; take a long look around 
           Gm
Before you step-
           Ebmaj
'Cause the tide is coming.
               Bb
Swallowing the ground-
    F/A               F               Gm
And there's no way to tell if we will drown tonight,
            Ebmaj6 Ebmaj7
Or we'll be found tonight.

        Bb            F/A
Come in close; if the current gets us, 
                Gm
Then it gets us both.
             Ebmaj
And we can't wait here anymore-

Prechorus

          Gm7                 Ebmaj7
So if the waves come, let 'em take us-
        Bb                         Fsus4        F
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath-

Chorus  

            Gm7           Ebmaj      Bb/D         F/C
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
            Gm7           Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us- 
        Bb                  F/A
But we can't go back to the way it used to be.

Gm                                             Eb

Verse

        Bb         F/A
Take it in; take a good look at 
                   Gm
What it might have been. 
         Ebmaj                         Bb
As we're swept into the water from the shore,
                F/A                             Gm
Because there's no way they can tell us that we can't have more-
           Ebmaj
Because we can have more.

Prechorus

       Gm7                 Ebmaj7
As the waves come, let 'em take us-
        Bb                         Fsus4        F
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath-

Chorus

        Gm7           Ebmaj          Bb/D         F/C
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
            Gm7           Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us- 
        Bb                 F/A
No we can't go back to the way it used to be.

Bridge

Ebmaj       Bb       F/A        Ebmaj           
So certain, where it would take us-
             Bb      F/A   Gm7
So sure that we were never lost;
          F/A     Bb       Eb                 Ebmaj
To notice whether we'll be drowned tonight or found tonight...


Prechorus

          Gm7                 Ebmaj7
So as the waves come, let 'em take us-
        Bb                         Fsus4        F
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath-
             Gm7               Ebmaj7
It takes the shape of who will save us.
        Bb              
When it leaves it's hard to know, 
      Fsus4            F
But I will not let you go.

Chorus

            Gm7           Ebmaj      Bb/D         F/C
I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
            Gm7           Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us-
      Bb                   F/A
No we can't go back to the way it used to be.

Gm              Eb             Bb           F/A

            Gm7           Ebmaj7
I hope that they won't forget us-
      Bb                   F/A            Eb
No we can't go back to the way it used to be.
