Verse 1:
@ F  Am
   Tonight will be
@ F    Am
   the night that we 
@ F  Am
   begin to ease 
@ G          F
   the plugs out of the dam 
@ F    Am
   And we will stand 
@ F     Am
   knee deep in the flow 
@ F    Am
   the undertow 
@    G                  F
will grab our heels and won't let go
@ F    Am
   And while we hold 
@ F         Am
   our legs quivering 
@ F          Am
   the water rises now 
@      G             F
to our teeth when we just let go


Chorus:
    C             G/B    Am
and sail belly up to the clouds 
                       F
the rocks scraping our backs 
                          G
To breath in the air will be 
    G(hold)    @       F
the only thing that we have


Verse 2:
Am            @      F     @
  and all the wasted nights 
          @       F  Am
and empty moments in our lives 
         @   G      F
flushed away as we sway with the rhythm 
@ F Am
    of the waves 
@ F Am
    bobbing us up 
@ F        Am                 @
    Crests fall to troughs we feel
    G     F
our gills open up


(Repeat Chorus 1 except last line)


    G                  Am
the only thing that we have

Bridge:
           Em        F
and if the hook sets in
           G      Am
the bottom of our lungs, 
             Em
we'll rip it out and 
F                  G        F(hold)
lick the blood off with our tongues


Interlude: F--Am @ F Am


Verse 3:

The despair 
@ F    Am
   can ravage you
@ F Am               @     G
    if you turn your head around
        F
to look down the path 
@ F       Am
   that's led you here 
@ F       Am
    cause what can you change? 
@ F          Am
    You're a vessel now 
@        G        F
floating down the waterways 
@ F         Am
    You can take your rudder 
@ F     Am
    and aim your ship 
@ F      Am           @
    just don't bother with 
    G           F
the things left in your wake
 

(Repeat Chorus 1 except last line)


    G                  C
the only thing that we have


Chorus 2:
                   G/B     Am
and your love will be warm nights 
                    F
with pockets of moonlight 
                        G
spotlighting you as you drift
                  C
the actor in this play


Chorus 3:
              G/B        Am
And you walk across the stage
                       F
take a bow, hear the applause
                   G
and as the curtain falls
                     C
just know you did it all 


Chorus 4:
              G/B      Am
the best that you knew how
                               F
and you can hear them cheering now
                                 G
So let a smile out and show your teeth 
                            C(hold)-Am(hold)-F(hold)
cause you know you lived it well
