Intro:

E
1, 2


Verse 1:

C#m
Make it easy and I’ll hold it against you
B                        E
I’m on a string dangled right in front of you
C#m
Make it hard and I’ll run away
B                     E
Keep tomorrow as I kill today

                           C#m
Trying to figure just what I deserve
B                   E
Slashing lines all across the earth
                          C#m
Patience only makes the dream come true
B                            E
Everything I see, I hold to you


Chorus:

B           C#m                A
Tell me, this is it, the truly great thing
B                         E
The love you’ve hoped to find
                       A
Any doubt will simply wipe itself out
          B                   C#m                E
As we’re rising deeper the first and last time


Verse 2:

                         C#m
Lift me up and drop me down again
B                   E
Every day I feel confusion, pain
                                C#m
And love is what we’ve all been waiting for
B                      E
Something powerful to smash it all apart

                      C#m
Can’t love if you’re locked up tight
      B                    E
The dream of perfection, nothing ever seems right
C#m
All the world will tell you, you’re all wrong
B                       E
Big, big deal if you’re wrong


Chorus:

B           C#m                A
Tell me, this is it, the truly great thing
B                         E
The love you’ve hoped to find
                       A
Any doubt will simply wipe itself out
          B                   C#m                E
As we’re rising deeper the first and last time
