Intro:
E MajorE
E F#F#
G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE F#F# (x2)

Verse 1:
G# minorG#m        BB
A augmentedA sinking ship, an awkward kiss,
 E MajorE          F#F#
A augmentedA chance to set things straight.
  G# minorG#m        BB
The kind of hurt that burns and burns,
E MajorE       F#F#
Like fires we can't contain.

Verse 2:
  G# minorG#m     BB        E MajorE         F#F#
We hole up in a shelter made of bones and ice and there we'll wait,
  G# minorG#m     BB
To start again with steady hands,
E MajorE      F#F#        C# minorC#m
This time nothing gets in our way,
     E MajorE             F#F#
But as we peer a little closer what do we see?

Chorus:
C# minorC#m        G# minorG#m
  A augmentedA crack in the surface,
F#F#        E MajorE               BB       F#F#
  A augmentedA flaw in the plan
        (Plans we made together, almost buried in the sand)
         G# minorG#m
  A augmentedA cadence imperfect
F#F#          E MajorE                    BB        C# minorC#m
  Like a building condemned
           (Can we indemnify ourselves if we don't face what we're against?)

Intro Riff:
E MajorE
E F#F#

Verse 3:
G# minorG#m        BB
A augmentedA promise kept, the dirt unswept,
 E MajorE       F#F#
A augmentedA poorly worn disguise.
G# minorG#m         BB
A augmentedA child unloved that then grows up,
E MajorE      F#F#
To love what we despise.

Verse 4:
   G# minorG#m       BB         E MajorE         F#F#
We're broken but still breathing, we are wounded but we are healing.
  G# minorG#m          BB
We pick up right where we left off,
E MajorE      F#F#      C# minorC#m
Breathe on the ashes that remain,
       E MajorE                  F#F#
So that these coals may become fire, to guide our way.

Chorus:
C# minorC#m        G# minorG#m
  A augmentedA crack in the surface,
F#F#        E MajorE               BB       F#F#
  A augmentedA flaw in the plan
        (Plans we made together, almost buried in the sand)
         G# minorG#m
  A augmentedA cadence imperfect
F#F#          E MajorE                    BB        C# minorC#m    E MajorE
  Like a building condemned
           (Can we indemnify ourselves if we don't face what we're against?)


Interlude:
G# minorG#m             E MajorE
I walk on wounds that seldom prove to slow me down,
G# minorG#m             E MajorE
I laugh this constant pain away, so you can't tell,
F#F#
But there it lies under the smiles,
E MajorE
It drains me mile after mile,
F#F#             E MajorE
But seldom proves to slow me down,
G# minorG#m   F#F# E MajorE
Here I go,
G# minorG#m   F#F# E MajorE
Here I go,
G# minorG#m   F#F# E MajorE
Here I go.

        F#F#   E MajorE
Should we just hold on,
     F#F#   E MajorE
To what remains of,
     F#F#     E MajorE
What we thought was lost.

Chorus:
E MajorE         G# minorG#m
  A augmentedA crack in the surface,
F#F#        E MajorE               BB       F#F#
  A augmentedA flaw in the plan
        (Plans we made together, almost buried in the sand)
         G# minorG#m
  A augmentedA cadence imperfect
F#F#          E MajorE                    BB        F#F#
  Like a building condemned
           (Can we indemnify ourselves if we don't face what we're against?)
                                                G# minorG#m
                                        A augmentedA crack in the surface,
F#F#        E MajorE
  A augmentedA crack in the surface.

Outro:
BB C# minorC#m
