[Intro]

|D |E |F#m | |D |E4/B |A | |
[Verse 1]
A E F#m
When holding your breath is safer than breathing
D A Bm
When letting go is braver than keeping
D E F#m
When innocent words turn to lies
D E4/B A
And you can't hide by closing your eyes
[Verse 2]
A E F#m
When pain is all that they offer
D A Bm
Like a kiss from the lips of a monster
D E F#m
You know the famine so well, but never met the feast
D E4/B E
When home is the belly of a beast
[Chorus]
D F#m
The ocean is wild and over your head
D D/C# Bm
And the boat beneath you is sinking
D E F#m
Don't need room for your bags, hope is all that you have
Bm Bm/A
So say the Lord's Prayer twice, hold your babies tight
E7 E
Surely someone will reach out a hand
D E A
And show you a safe place to land
[Verse 3]
A E F#m
Oh, imagine yourself in a building
D D/C# Bm
Up in flames, being told to stand still
D E F#m
The window's wide open, this is leap is on faith
D E
You don't know who will catch you, but maybe somebody will
[Chorus]
D F#m
