Excuse the commentary throughout the
 song, I'm discovering I like TDH a

CAPO 3


ORDER: I V1 PC1 INT1 V2 PC2 C INT2 B
 FPC FINT FC O


[INTRO] (this "oh" motif strangely 
resembles that in "My Land", Sonata 
Arctica)
C | | Am | F |
C | | Am | F |


[VERSE 1]
Am                      C
   I thought that I knew love,
              C             G     
   but it was just the wave 
          Fadd9 F
crashing over us
Am                      C
   And in the breaths between the 
ones we meant to breathe,
            G             Fmaj7
   I had my head under my feet


[PD-C HORUS 1]
Fmaj7                       G6
     you knew the way things  were
Fmaj7                      G6
     you knew the way they would be
Fmaj7                G
     we knew exactly how it'd end


[INTERLUDE 1] (lick. Somewhat 
reminiscent of Prokofiev's "Peter 
and the Wolf", Peter/string section)
Am  | C | |
3/2  4/4

C   G | F | F n.c.|

[VERSE 2]
Am                  C
   Strays on a stable sea
        C                     
   I'll anchor the engine to a 
 G                 Fmaj7
canyon far beneath
Am                     C
   The water rushed up from the 
boards below,
        C                   G
   so I started slicking my hair 
with the kerosene


[PD-C HORUS 2]
Fmaj7                       G6
     you knew the way things  were
Fmaj7                      G
     you knew the way they would be
Fmaj7                G
     we knew exactly how it'd end


[CHORUS] (plus "oh" motif)
C             Cmaj7           C 
   And I'm prepar - ing for a 
        Am
burial at sea
       Fmaj7                   G
   and I    can't see the lighthouse
C           Cmaj7                
   yeah I'm pray - ing that these
       C           Am
 waters don't take me
         Fmaj7             
  'cause I    can't see the 
      G
lighthouse


[INTERLUDE 2] (lick x2)

[BRIDGE]
Dm
   I was screaming that the ship was
 sinking,
Am
   but you were telling me to just 
keep drinking
G
   quartered in the parts again
Am
   arms and legs in the bottom of 
the ocean
Dm
   and the thing that made it so 
much harder
Am
   was the fact that you were 
someone's daughter


[FINAL PD-C HORUS]
Fmaj7
     I knew the way things were
Fmaj7
     I knew the way they would be
Fmaj7               Dm
     I knew exactly how it'd end

[FINAL CHORUS]
C             Cmaj7           C 
   And I'm prepar - ing for a 
        Am
burial at sea
       Fmaj7                   G
   and I    can't see the lighthouse
C           Cmaj7                
   yeah I'm pray - ing that these
                   Am7
 waters don't take me
         Fmaj7             
  'cause I    can't see the 
      G
lighthouse

      Fmaj9                   G
Yeah, I    can't see the lighthouse

(verse echo)
Am                        C
    I thought that I knew love
               C           G      
    but it was just a wave 
       Fmaj7
crashing over us
