[E] [B]
[E] [B]
[E] There's a piano [Em] playing on the ocean [Am] floor,
[G] between Havana and the [F#] Rodeo.
[B]
[Em] Drum on a record for [Am] the dealer,
[G] and the soul is hanging on [F#] every woman's prayer.
[B]
[Am] Running to [G] the rock,
[F#] running [Em] to the sea,
[Am] praying to [G] you Lord,
[B] please [Em] help me.
[Am] The ground [F#] is sheeted, [Am] water is boiling [B] on fire,
[E]
blood pours into their veins.
Pathways crashing on the malecon [E] wall,
[Em] fox stopping [A] at Swift,
[G] on the wings of a forgotten [B] war.
[Em] Louise driving up [Am] 59,
[G] making it halfway across the [B] goal.
[Am] Stranded [G] on the rock,
[B] stranded [E] on the sea,
[Am] there's a [G] wall in the ocean [B] between you [Em] and me.
[Am] We're dancing [G] on a team's [E] island,
[Am] talking to the [F#] fortune teller,
[Am] prisoners pounding the [Em] gym.
Like [Am] waves crashing [B] on the malecon [Em] wall.
[E]
Someone lost the lie,
someone lost the truth,
[Em] [E]
crime is taking place.
[Em] [E] Look me in the eyes of the virgin elf, oh [Em] breathe.
[E] You show me your lies sister,
[Em] you show me your lies sister.
Oh, I see you on the other side.

[G] [B]
[Em]
[B] In the drum sink square,
[G] [Em] walking across the fire,
[B] walking [E] across the leaves.
[G] [B] [Am]
Stranded on the [G] rock, [B]
stranded on [Em] the sea,
[Am] there's a sunken [G] bridge [F#] between [Em] you and me.
[Am] Running past the [B] LSE [E] dudes,
in the shadow [B] of the A-shrine,
[Em] blood pouring through their veins.
Like the waves they [B] remember,
crashing the [Em] malecon wall.
