A D A E A [VERSE 1]
A D Five years from now
A E F#m I can't say that I'll be around
A D cause you are so sweet
A E A but other things call to me [CHORUS]
A E They sing o-o-o-oh
F#m D Forget where you come from

D your skull
A E A won't get the best of you now
D oh no
A E A They won't get the best of you now

[VERSE 2]
A D You dream so long
A E of a girl who would swallow your

A E A Silent she waits for you [CHORUS]
A E She sings o-o-o-oh

A E A They won't get the best of you now [OUTRO]
D Hand over hand my friend
A You're holding up everything
E On shoulders like splintered pine
Bm E Narrow and fine
Bm E Oh so narrow and fine
D Water like porcelain
A To mirror your see through skin
E Bones that the waves licked clean
Bm E It's nothing you've seen
Bm E oh it's nothing you've seen
D Hand over hand my son
A You're holding up everyone
E Can't be the thing you're for
F#m There has to be more
