The Steam Rises chords by Steam Powered Giraffe

Intro

Am F C G

Verse 1:

         Am           F                C
I take a chance every day against this tide (Ah)
           Am         F              C
I know the way to our hearts isn't a lie (Ah)

            Em                 F           C
And when it feels impossible I stay just a little while
    G                   F          C
And then we'll see that reassuring billowing (Billowing)

G         F
The steam rises
      C
And I know it's all okay
    G     F
The steam rises
          C                 G
And we're feeling ourselves again
G              F
It's a bold accusation
                C        G
To say one will never be ok
G               F
'Cause the steam rises
     C
Just look I swear you'll see
    G           F                  C
The steam still rises from you and me

Am F C G


Verse 2:

              Am            F                     C
There's not a day that goes by where you leave my mind
           Am    F                     C
The boiler in me burns, is yours still alight? (Alight)
             Em                      F                         C
And when I'm waiting for you to come back, these pistons still drive me
      G              F               C
And I know we'll see that reassuring billowing (Billowing)



G         F
The steam rises
      C
And I know it's all okay
G         F
The steam rises
          C                  G
And we're feeling ourselves again
G                   F
Try to find the aspiration
                 C           G
To say that it's going to be okay
G                F
'Cause the steam rises
     C
Just look I swear you'll see
    G     F
The steam rises
    G     F
The steam rises
            C
For you and me
