Theseus Chords

(ver. 1)
Oh Hellos
[Verse 1]
F#   E
     At the edges of my fingers
               B
Never quite closing ‘round it
C#m  E
Oh that peace like a river
E
Always going, but never getting
 
[Prechorus]
A                       C#m                      A
      Seems like maybe it’s not all that much a place
 B         A
As it is a way
       E
And ways don’t ever seem to want to
E
Stay too still for too long
 
[Chorus]
F#m7
Isn’t that what it’s all about?
F#m7
The slow trickling thaw that sets the banks in half
F#5       F#m7
The sweet melody it makes when the canyons crack
                F#m
I wanna give it all I’ve got, and I want nothing
            F#5         E
I want nothing back

[Verse 2]
E
       Whatever kingdom come, it probably won’t come quick
                   B
No mighty clarion to announce it
E
No single-use ark to discard in an instant
E
Like Theseus’s ship, we’ll fix the busted bits
 
[Prechorus]
A               C#m7              A
      'Til it’s both nothing like and everything
        F#
It’s always been
A                E
        It’s a wonder we expect a thing to
E
Stay the same at all
 
 
[Chorus]
F#m
Maybe that’s what it’s all about
                                    F#
We keep fixing what we know is only bound to break
F#m
What’s worth saving is never worth letting go to waste
    F#                                  F#m
I want to mend what I’ve got, instead of throwing away

[Bridge]
       E
Ain’t nothing come easy
E
No, nothing comes quick
           A
It’s gonna hurt like hell to become well
          B
But if we set the bone straight
E
It’ll mend
E
It’ll fix
       F#m7
And we’ll be well
 
[Outro]
C#m            E                  A
         Ain’t nothing comes easy
C#m7               A
No, nothing comes quick
Amaj7                   F#m    A
                But I want for you this: that you are well
  B
I want for us this, oh:
  C#m       E
That we are well
 
E*
we are well
N.C.
we are well
N.C.
we are well
N.C.
we are well
