      | A | C#m | E | B | B |


                A            C#m
Every breaking wave on the shore,
           E                        B
tells the next one there’ll be one more.
                    A            C#m
And every gambler knows that to lose,
     E                       B
is what you’re really there for.
              A            C#m
Summer I was fearlessness,
        E                    B
now I speak into an answer phone.
                  A             C#m
Like every falling leaf on the breeze,
 E                         B      B
winter wouldn’t leave it alone, alone.


           A   C#m
If you go’
           E                 B
If you go your way and I go mine.
           A  C#m
Are we so’
           E                    B
Are we so helpless against the tide’
            A                C#m
Baby every dog on the street,
                     E            B
knows that we’re in love with defeat.
                     A                 C#m
Are we ready to be swept off our feet’
           E      B               A     C#m  E  B
And stop chasing, every breaking wave..


               A             C#m
Every sailor knows that the sea,
        E              B
is a friend made enemy.
                       A                  C#m
And every shipwrecked soul, knows what it is,
    E                  B
to live without intimacy.
                       A               C#m
I thought I heard the captain’s voice,
              E                 B
it’s hard to listen while you preach.
                   A            C#m
Like every broken wave on the shore, 
  E                       B       B
this is as far as I could reach..


          A   C#m
If you go’
           E                 B
If you go your way and I go mine.
           A  C#m
Are we so’
           E                    B
Are we so helpless against the tide’
            A                C#m
Baby every dog on the street,
                     E            B
knows that we’re in love with defeat.
                     A                 C#m
Are we ready to be swept off our feet’
           E      B               F#m     A  E  B
And stop chasing, every breaking wave..


     F#m                                 A
The sea knows where are the rocks, and drowning is no sin.
  E                              B
You know where my heart is, the same place that yours has been.
 F#m                              A                     E
We know that we fear to win, and so we end before we begin,
             B
before we begin..
