Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro
Fmaj7G6



Verse 1
 Fmaj7
Grew up by the ocean.
 G6
Seekin' out the blue in the shades of grey, like a poem
 Fmaj7
Or soliloquies, it was only me in a broken home
 G6
So I'd spend my nights sittin', watchin' tides ever flowin'
Drinkin' and smokin'

Pre-Chorus
 Fmaj7
A third divorce, it rained and poured
 Am       G6
And I got high to feel somethin'
 Fmaj7                                                      Am G6
The sea is wild and volatile, I used to live in fear of it.
(Yeah)

Chorus
Fmaj7
 But now I run like water
 Am                      G6
Let currents pull me far from shore
 Fmaj7
I anchor down and I swim
 Am
In the eyes of my daughter, I'm beautiful
 G6                                   Fmaj7
I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall


Post-Chorus
 Am
I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall
 G6                           Fmaj7
I rise and fall like water, like water


Verse 2
 Fmaj7
Now I live by the river
 G6
The water's stained, but it couldn't be any clearer
 Fmaj7
I don't love this town, but I'm here so I don't have to miss her
 G6
Could be guilt 'cause I don't know if I'll ever give her a sister
But I'll love her till the waves pull me under

Pre-Chorus
 Fmaj7                                                   Am         G6
My ego I have laid to rest, I resurrect to be somethin', hmm
 Fmaj7                                                      Am G6
The sea is wild and volatile, I used to live in fear of it.
(Yeah)

Chorus
Fmaj7
 But now I run like water
 Am                      G6
Let currents pull me far from shore
 Fmaj7
I anchor down and I swim
 Am
In the eyes of my daughter, I'm beautiful
 G6                                   Fmaj7
I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall


Post-Chorus
 Am
I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall
 G6                                Fmaj7
I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall
 Am
I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall
 G6                           Fmaj7
I rise and fall like water, like water
