Intro Gm D# F
Gm F
Just get me off of this ocean
D#
Want to move on the true sea
Gm F
There's no above or no below, just you
D#
Just you beside me
Gm F
Just take me over that last horizon
D#
Where this light's never been
Gm Cm D#
Into a roaring black silence no shell (Not so sure here what
Bb F the second chord is)
Would even attempt to repeat
Gm D# F x2
Gm F
Just get me out of this hotel
D#
Check me out of this sleep
Gm
Been treading water
F D#
Hearing recorded messages inside this reoccurring dream
Gm F
My starry-eyed compass keeps a secret
D#
No starry-eyed theory can take
Gm Cm D# Bb
And a promise she'll keep until the true sea gathers us up
F
In a tidal wave

I'll follow you overboard
In the collapsing waves
I'll find you in the dark
Like a stowaway
Just leave ourselves unfinished
Just leave an empty page
And let those sweeping arms just carry us away
Carry us away
[Chorus]
