Intro: Bm E (x2)
Verse 1
A Dadd9 E
Everything is open, nothing is set in stone,
Rivers turn to oceans, oceans tide you home
Home is where the heart is, but your heart had to roam
Drifting over bridges never to return
E7
Watching bridges burn
A E Dadd9
You're driftwood, floating underwater
D
Breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces
Just driftwood, floating and of no use,
Waterfalls that find you, bind you, grind you
Verse 2
Nobody is an island, everyone has to go
Pillars turn to butter, butterfly and low
Low is where your heart is, but your heart has to grow
Drifting under bridges, never with the flow
Middle 8
Bm E
And you really didn't think it would happen
Bm E
But it really is the end of the line
A E D
So I'm sorry that you turned to driftwood
Dadd9 A
But you've been drifting for a long long time
Break Bm E (x3)Bm
Verse 3
Everywhere there's trouble, nowhere's safe to go
Pushes turn to shovels, shoveling the snow
Frozen you have chosen, the path you wish to go
Drifting now forever and forever more
Till you reach your shore
Chorus
Middle 8
Dadd9 A
You've been drifting for a long, long time
Dadd9 A
You've been drifting for a long, long
Dadd9 A
Drifting for a long, long time
