This is the acoustic version of the track Rebel Tide from the Embellish EP
(listen to it here: https://soundcloud.com/thejellyrox/rebel-tide-coffee-house).
This is an amazing song, and really easy and really fun to play.
The only thing I would suggest is being careful of the timing
of the chords. The transitions are syncopated, but once you
get the hang of it, it's a piece of cake. Enjoy!
Standard Tuning
Verse 1:
G
I'm shooting for the stars to hit the moon

Mapping out a course for both my shoes

I've already practiced acting like there's nothing to it.

Try to hold the world together in my mind

Try to prove my heart is worth the blood that's pumping through it
Pre-chorus:
Em C2 G
Praying like a child on Christmas Eve
Em C2 G
Father won't you raise the sun early?
Em C2 G Dsus D
If you do this one last thing for me I'll be your soldier
Chorus:
Em C2 G D
And it takes you by surprise
Em C2 G D
Like a rebel tide
Em C2 G Dsus D
Like lightning from the sky has been searching for you
Em C2 G D
And it splits you like a knife
Em C2 G D
The moment that it strikes
Em C2 G Dsus D
When you realize that death was looking for you.

Try to keep my thoughts above my mouth

Miss it by a mile and then some

My insides are thirsty for whatever drink you're pouring
