[Introduction]
E G#m B F#
[Verse 1]
E G#m B
Staring down the barrel of a hundred tons
(We're on the way)
F# E G#m B
It might be getting older, but the night's still young
(We're on the way)
F# E G#m B
We never, never give up on the lost boy life
(We're on the way)
F# E G#m B F#
So here we are, escaping from the world outside
(We're on the way)
[Pre-Chorus]
E G#m F#
Oh, what would your mother say if she could see what we're doing now?
E G#m F#
Oh, what would your mother say if she could hear what we talk about?
[Chorus]
E B F#
The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again
E B
The waves are crashing down on you and me
F#
I'll see you on the other side
E B F#
Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
E B F#
Caught up in, caught up in the waves
E G#m B
[Verse 2]
F# E G#m B
Suddenly we're fallin' through the twilight zone
(We're on the way)
F# E G#m B
Watch the party playing out in slow motion
(We're on the way)
F# E G#m B
So tie a ribbon 'round my arm and throw me in
(We're on the way)
F# E G#m B F#
Is it an apocalypse or nihilism on your lips? We sink or swim

[Pre-Chorus]
E G#m F#
Oh, what would your mother say if she could see what we're doing now?
E G#m F#
Oh, what would your mother say if she could hear what we talk about? (Hey)
[Chorus]
E B F#
The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again
E B
The waves are crashing down on you and me
F#
I'll see you on the other side
E B F#
Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
E B F#
Caught up in, caught up in the waves
E G#m F# x2
[Bridge]
E G#m
The air hit me on the way out
F#
Did it make me more sober or make me more drunk?
E G#m F#
I couldn't quite remember the vision of you and of me
E G#m
The air hit me on the way out
F#
Did it make me more sober or make me more drunk?
E G#m F#
I couldn't quite remember the vision of you and of me
[Chorus]
E B F#
The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again
E B
The waves are crashing down on you and me
F#
I'll see you on the other side
E B F#
Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
E B F#
Caught up in, caught up in the wave
[Outro]
E B F#
They're crashing down, they're crashing down, oh
E B
They're crashing down on you and me
F#m
I'll see you on the other side
