Db           F#
She walks by crying
Db              F#
Those tears say jay-in
F#                 Db
Somebody should've told her yesterday
Db      F#
That it all can fade away
           Db
She didn't know mmm
                 F#
Guess she didn't know

F#                      Db
Now these sidewalks are leaking
      F#                         Db
Ooohh shattered feelings leave a trail
                  F#
I wish I could've held her right before
          Db
She would walk into that door
              F#
Who knew it'd all
                       Ab
Come tumbling down

                 Db
If only we could reach out our hands
                 F#                           Bbm
And somehow just understand and see what this world has planned
        Ab
We'd be rising from quicksand
(Quicksand) Quicksand

                 Db
If only we could hear what's unsaid
                       F#
Then I could make her face dry again
               Bbm
And we could rewrite this end
            Ab
And we'd be rising from quicksand
                 Db
Rising from quicksand

F#                Db
Now her lips keep shaking
F#                           Db
Across the street I feel her breaking
                       F#
She wonders what's the use of this heart
      Db
If it only tears apart
              F#
If I would've known
           Ab
I would've saved her from this beating

                 Db
If only we could reach out our hands
                 F#                           Bbm
And somehow just understand and see what this world has planned
        Ab
We'd be rising from quicksand
(Quicksand) Quicksand

                 Db
If only we could hear what's unsaid
                      F#
Then I could make her face dry again
               Bbm
And we could rewrite this end
            Ab
And we'd be rising from quicksand
                     Db
Rising from quicksand

F#                           Bbm
She's been fighting in a war alone
                           F#
It's getting hard to carry on
                       Ab
She's dying but nobody knows knows

F#                   Bbm
If only every single day
                      F#
I could take away the pain
                    Ab
The sand would fade away
            Db
And we'd be rising

                 D
If only we could reach out our hands
                 G                            Bm
And somehow just understand and see what this world has planned
                    A
We'd be rising from quicksand
(Quicksand) Quicksand

                 D
If only we could hear what's unsaid
                      G
Then I could make her face dry again
               Bm
And we could rewrite this end
                        A
And we'd be rising from quicksand
                  D
