Verse 2:
Em7
I heard somebody cry
Cadd9
I thought I was alone
Em7
I came to numb my lungs in the salt air
Gmaj9
Let the breakers heal my bones
Em7 Cadd9
I wish that the current would carry me home
G
I've been running for a decade now
Gmaj9
And I think I'm ready to go
Gmaj9
Oh, I'm ready to go
G Cadd9 Em Gmaj9
Verse 3:
G
I stopped making deals with God
Cadd9
When the light finally died
Em
I'm gonna guard what's left of the good in us
Gmaj9
When the ash blocks out the sky
Em7
And hold you with my left hand
Cadd9
And ball up my right
G
And if the bastards come for both of us
Gmaj9
I'll be right there by your side
Gmaj9
I'm by your side
G Cadd9 Em Gmaj9
Chorus:
Bm
When I was in shambles
G
When I got too weak
D G
The ocean grew hands to hold me
Bm
When I was in shambles
G
When I got too weak
D G
The ocean grew hands to hold me
Verse 4:
Em
I stopped blaming God
Cadd9
When you said you were sick
G
I learned to lean on the people who love me
Gmaj9
When the sutures start to split
Em7 Cadd9
I trust in the current to pull you back in
G
I miss everyone at once
Gmaj9
But most of all, I miss the ocean
