Intro: BB  x4

E MajorE  x4


Verse 1:
E MajorE
  Standing knee deep in cold water
       F#F#
swiftly moving  somehow I
         E MajorE
knew I'd lost something


Interlude: E MajorE  x2


Verse 2:
E MajorE
  Wading waist deep I saw a book there in
     E MajorE
the river  waiting for me to find it there
E MajorE
  I tried to read it neck deep treading water
E MajorE
  but the tide it pulled me out to sea


Chorus 1:
     E MajorE
Then with water in my eyes the words
             G# minorG#m
began to rise from their place
     E MajorE
They were beautiful and dread
                  G# minorG#m
I reached for them and fed on each phrase
     C# minorC#m
They were honey on my lips but
       E MajorE
then a bitter twist in my side
       C# minorC#m
I knew they'd lay me in my grave
             E MajorE
"Is there no one who can save me?" I cried

Post Chorus: E MajorE  x2

Verse 3:
BB
  Sinking down deep
    EbmEbm
through  cold water
G# minorG#m
  heavy silence  shadows
E MajorE
  stirring in the gloom
F#F#
  What things that lay
 C# minorC#m
sleeping down deep  in
      G# minorG#m
the darkness  woke then
E MajorE
 to find me in that tomb?


Chorus 2:
     E MajorE
Then with water in my eyes the words
             G# minorG#m
began to rise from their place
     E MajorE
They were beautiful and dread
                  G# minorG#m
I reached for them and fed on each phrase
     C# minorC#m
They were honey on my lips but
       E MajorE
then a bitter twist in my side
       C# minorC#m
I knew they'd lay me in my grave
             F#F#
"Is there no one who can save me?" I cried


Bridge:
      BB
And when I lost all hope to look
    Bb majorBb
someone took that heavy
       E MajorE
book from my hands all
  BB
its weight they set aside after
E MajorE
they had satisfied its demands
    G# minorG#m
I felt white and black reverse
    E MajorE
and the lifting a curse from my heart
     G# minorG#m
Then like one receiving sight
  F#F#
I beheld a brilliant light in the dark
