B minorBm
We walked along the rocks for nearly an hour
C# minorC#m B minorBm
I caught the way you looked at me in the sunlight
C# minorC#m B minorBm
You took something before you went in the shower
C# minorC#m B minorBm
You have suppressed the things that make you feel uptight
E MajorE E/B E MajorE E/B
If I had known you couldn't swim we would never have gone in
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
I left my love in the river
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
The only one who sees
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
I lost his hand in the current
E MajorE C# minorC#m B minorBm
It was the life I wanted and I?d hoped for
E MajorE C# minorC#m B minorBm
And now I am left sifting through the leaves
C# minorC#m B minorBm
His arms so hard, I saw his skin through his t-shirt
C# minorC#m B minorBm
The grass so tall, we knew we wouldn't be found
C# minorC#m B minorBm
We climbed into the stream so no one will be heard
C# minorC#m B minorBm
And in no time at all there wasn't a sound
E MajorE E/B E MajorE E/B
If I?d known you couldn't swim we would have never gone in
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
I left my love in the river
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
The only one who sees
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
I lost his hand in the current
E MajorE C# minorC#m B minorBm
It was the life I wanted and I?d hoped for
E MajorE C# minorC#m B minorBm
And now you?re left sifting through the leaves
A augmentedA D MajorD x4
E MajorE
No colour to his skin, inform the next of kin
E MajorE D MajorD
No colour to his skin
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
I left my love in the river
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
The only one I see
A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
I left his hand in the current
E MajorE C# minorC#m B minorBm
And now I am left blowing through the trees
