The tide came in [G] and nearly buried us here But we saw [Am] things like they wouldn't [F] believe
[C] You [F] hear a lot of stories [C] about love and romance But [G] I swear nothing quite like you and [F] me
[C] And [F]
[C] every scar [G] sits like a marker Every line on the [Am] face is [E] a small [F] souvenir
Of [C] all [F] the places, [C] be they good or be they bad [G] We stopped in to on the journey to [Am] here

[G] Another
[C] evening of [G] sublime self-destruction To the [Am] tune [G] of a thousand [F] cigarettes
Where every nail that's [C] hammered into your spirit [G] Wasn't able to sink in just [F] yet
[G] [Am] [B] [C] And your television is [G] just some weak anaesthetic [Am] To numb the [G] senses till you're out [F] like a lie
Like all these drugs they seem to [C] promise you the earth [G] And then they don't keep you warm [F] in the night
