[Verse 1]
C        F              C
We are a wave endlessly breaking
C          F           C
We are the ever seeing eye
C           F                    C
We've never left the place we're searching for


[Chorus]
C              F               C
Don't bring no ladder when you die
C              F               C
Don't bring no ladder when you die


[Verse 2]
C            F              C
We raise our sails inside a bottle
C           F                  C
We hang the moon and paint the sky
C               F                C
There's never a seat left in the life boat


[Chorus]
C              F               C
Don't bring no ladder when you die
C              F               C
Don't bring no ladder when you die


[Bridge]
Am               F       C
And if you could bury me naked
Am               F       C
And if you could bury me deep
E7                             Am
Believe that from the darkness something will emerge
Am     Dm                           G
We are forever on the verge of some hard truth

[Verse 3]
C        F              C
We are a needle in the haystack
C          F              C
We swallow swords and we fight wild fires
C       F              C
There's always a snake inside the garden


[Outro]
C              F               C
Don't bring no ladder when you die
C              F               C
Don't bring no ladder when you die


C              F               C
Don't bring no ladder when you die
C              F               C
Don't bring no ladder when you die
C              F               C
Don't bring no ladder when you die
C              F               C
Don't bring no ladder when you die
