Lake House chords by Bad Books

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

G+G              C majorC
All the lake houses were moving

                 G+G
They were spinning around in the lake

             C majorC
They were shark-infested waters

                G+G
They were dangerous places to play


Verse 2:

             C majorC
You approached me like a brother

               G+G
Told me "all that you see isn't true"

            C majorC
A augmentedA shark pops out of the water

            G+G
A augmentedA crucifix carved in his tooth

Verse 3:

             C majorC
There was one song left, repeated

               G+G
As I drifted off, grazing your leg

             C majorC
It was tough to tell your motive

               D MajorD
You were stuck between no and yes


Verse 4:

    G+G         C majorC
When I woke, I saw your anchor

             G+G
Pierce through the top of my spine

             C majorC
That I pushed too far to recover

            D MajorD
As I'm living on borrowing time

Verse 5:

   G+G           C majorC
When you showed up you were glowing

           G+G
Taking my last breath away

          C majorC
On the arm of some opponent

            G+G
Gushing at each word he says


Verse 6:

            C majorC
When I asked to speak about it

            G+G
You made it real easy for me

           C majorC
Just because we have a baby

              D MajorD
Doesn't mean that you belong to me


Verse 7:

          C majorC
Oh, and if I ever lose you

            G+G
If that horrible day ever comes

          C majorC
I don't know how I'd recover

            D MajorD
I don't know what race I'd run

         C majorC
But I know that I'd love you


Outro:

             G+G       C majorC
The day that we swore on that ring

             G+G
The day that we swore on that ring
