D                                A      
Tried to face up to the blinding sun    

      Bm                                      
Racing for the final word to come 

             G        G/F# 
Facing up is hard, to stay devout 

        D       A                     G    
I can't see the sand and it's running out 

D                G
And it's running out 

D                                   A 
We quote each other only when we're wrong 

                Bm           
We tear out the threads and move along 

              G    G/F# 
Can't seem to find common ground 

        D       A                     Em
I can't see the sand and it's running out 

            A
It was only circumstances 

             D
But it's the difference 

                A
It gets in the way 

           Em          A
No race is run in this direction 

                D
You can't break even 

          A             Bm
You can't even quit the game 

 D  G  D    A  Bm  G  D  A  G  D  G

D                        
The current drags to the bottom 

                  A
A hemorrhage that moves us around 

          Bm
Pulls and beckons, strong direction 

           G       G/F#
High water forever bringing us down 

        D       A                     G      
I can't see the sand and it's running out 

D            G
It's running out 

Em          A  
It was only circumstances 

             D
But it's the difference 

               A
It gets in the way 

           Em          A
No race is run in this direction 

                D
You can't break even 

          A             G     D
You can't even quit the game
