Bb  F

[Verse 1]
Bb                                 Eb
We will wax and wane just like the moon
    Bb                               Eb
and in the end the end will come too soon
    Gm
The stories we keep in our souls
    C
are wild and true and sad and gold
    Eb                                         F
Our songs will rise and fall and change their tunes.

[Verse 2]
Bb                                   Eb
We will move just like the wind and tide,
   Bb                                    Eb
Our little boat will rock from side to side
    Gm
Regrets will make their presence known
    C
and make us feel so all alone,
    Eb                         F
and leave us with no place to put our pride.

[Chorus]
      Eb               F
So the only thing that I can do
       Bb            Gm
Is try not to fall apart on you
      Eb              F                D7
and hold on to your heart with all my might
      Eb             F
We'll stop before we go too far
    Bb                   Gm
And when it's dark we'll look for stars
      Eb             F                   Bb . . . Eb . F .
To guide us home and get us through the night.

[Verse 3]
    Bb                         Eb
And what will be that's all I know
Bb                         F     Eb
We're at the mercy of the undertow
Gm
Time will leave a scar for sure
C
And love will fade there is no cure
   Eb                             F
and every blue will change to indigo.

[Chorus]
      Eb               F
So the only thing that I can do
        Bb           Gm
Is try not to fall apart on you
      Eb              F                D7
and hold on to your heart with all my might
      Eb              F
We'll stop before we go too far
    Bb                   Gm
And when it's dark we'll look for stars
      Eb             F                 Bb . . . Eb . F . Bb . . . Eb . F .
To guide us home and get us through the night.


[Verse 4]
Bb                                           Eb
Then we will win, then lose, then lose, then win
Bb                             Eb
Cover up then slowly shed our skin
Gm
Arm our hearts then drop our guard
C
All of this will be so hard
   Eb                                         F
We think we're made of steel, we're made of tin.

[Chorus]
      Eb               F
So the only thing that I can do
        Bb           Gm
Is try not to fall apart on you
      Eb              F                D7
and hold on to your heart with all my might
      Eb              F
We'll stop before we go too far
    Bb                   Gm
And when it's dark we'll look for stars
    Eb                F                   D7
To guide us home and get us through the night.
      Eb              F
We'll stop before we go too far
    Bb                    Gm
And when it's dark we'll look for stars
      Eb             F                    Bb . . .
To guide us home and get us through the night.
