The Anchor Chords

(ver. 1)
Bastille
[Intro]

C  Em  G  C
C  Em  G  C

("What do you know about it?"
"Well, you can tell me."
"I can't tell you! Don't- you can't- you can't explain, man, what's going on in your brain.
You can't tell somebody how- what's happening, what's going on in your-"
"Why don't you just try?")


[Verse 1]

           C                    Em
Let those fools be loud, let alarms ring out
            G                    C
'Cause you cut through all the noise
         C                    Em
Let the days be dark, let me hate my work
            G                     C
'Cause you cut through all the noise


[Pre-Chorus]

               Em
Bring me some hope
     C                D
By wandering into my mind
 Bm           Em
Something to hold on to
 C                      D
Morning, noon, day, or night


[Chorus] 

Bm            C             G
You are the light that is blinding me
            D                       Em
You're the anchor that I tie to my brain
  D              C             G
'Cause when it feels like I'm lost at sea
            D                     Em
You're the song I sing again and again
 D       C             Em
All the time, all the time
    Bm                 Em
I think of you all the time


[Verse 2]

           C                   Em
Let the parties end when we lose our friends
            G                    C
'Cause you cut through all the noise
         C                       Em
Let the years roll on 'till the static comes
           G                     C
'Cause you cut through all the noise


[Pre-Chorus]

               Em
Bring me some hope
     C                D
By wandering into my mind
 Bm           Em
Something to hold on to
 C                      D
Morning, noon, day, or night


[Chorus]
 
Bm            C             G
You are the light that is blinding me
            D                       Em
You're the anchor that I tie to my brain
  D              C             G
'Cause when it feels like I'm lost at sea
            D                     Em
You're the song I sing again and again
 D       C             Em
All the time, all the time
    Bm                 Em
I think of you all the time
 D       C             Em
All the time, all the time
    Bm                 Em    D
I think of you all the time
