Am                      C 
I thought that I knew love 
C                           G          Fmaj7 
but it was just the wave crashing over us 
Am                   C 
and in the breaths between the ones we meant to breath 
         G             Fmaj7 
I had my head under my feet 

F                         G 
you knew the way things were 
F                            G 
you knew the way they would be 
F                G      Am 
we knew exactly how it'd end 

Am       C 
oh oh oh oh oh 
C                 G        Fmaj7 
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 

Am                  C 
strays on a stable sea 
C                             G        Fmaj7 
i'll anchor the engine to a canyon far beneath(?) 
Am                    C 
the water rushed up from the boards below 
C                        G              Fmaj7 
so i started slicking my hair with the kerosene 

F                         G 
you knew the way things were 
F                      G 
you knew the way they would be 
F               G        Am 
we knew exactly how it'd end 

C                                 Am 
And I'm preparing for a burial at sea 
Fmaj7                   G    C 
and I can't see the lighthouse 
C                                             Am 
yeah I'm praying that these waters don't take me 
Fmaj7                     G   Am 
cause I can't see the lighthouse 

Am        C 
oh oh oh oh oh 
   C            G          Fmaj7 
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 
Am             C 
oh oh oh oh oh oh 
C             G      Am 
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh 

F 
I was screaming that the ship was sinking 
Am 
but you were telling me to just keep drinking 
G 
quartered in the parts again (?) 
Am 
arms and legs in the bottom of the ocean 
F 
and the thing that made it so much harder 
Am 
is the fact that you were someones daughter 

F                       G 
I knew the way things were 
F                         G 
I knew the way they would be 
 F              G        C 
I knew exactly how it'd end 


C                    Am 


Fmaj7                   G   C 
And I can't see the lighthouse 
C                                  Am 
and I'm preparing for a burial at sea 
Fmaj7                   G   C 
but I can't see the lighthouse 
C                                             Am 
yeah I'm praying that these waters don't take me 
Fmaj7                    G   Am 
cause I can't see the lighthouse 

Am                     C 
I thought that I knew love 
C                         G          Am 
but it was just a wave crashing over us
