[B] [A]
[C#m] [E]
[B] There's a [A] breaking wave [C#m] on the shore
[E] Tells the next one there'll be [B] one more
And every [A] gambler knows [C#m] that to [C] lose
[E] Is what you're really there [B] for
Some [A] are hours' fearlessness
[C#m] Now [E] I speak into an answer [B] phone
Like every [A] falling leaf [C#m] on the breeze
[E] Winter wouldn't leave [B] it alone
If you [A] go,
[C#m] if you [E] go, you're another [B] man
Are we [A] so,
[C#m] are we so [E] helpless against [B] the tide
Baby, [A] every dog on the [C#m] street
Knows that [E] we're in love with [B] defeat
Are we ready [A] to be swept off [C#m] our feet
And [E] stop chasing
[B] every breaking [A] wave
[C#m] And [E]
[B] every [A] sailor knows [C#m] that the sea
Is [E] a friend made [B] enemy
And every [A] shipwrecked soul [C#m] knows what it is
[E] To live without [B] intimacy
I thought [A] I heard the captain's [C#m]
voice
[E] But it's hard to listen while [B] you preach
Like every [A] broken wave [C#m] on the shore
[E] Misses as far [B] as I can reach
[Em] If you [A] go, [C#m] if you [E] go, you're another [B] man
Are we [A] so [C#m]
[E] helpless against [B] the tide
Baby, [A] every dog on the [C#m] street
Knows that [E] we're in love with [B] defeat
Are we [A] ready to be swept off our [C#m] feet
And [E] stop chasing [B] every [F#m] breaking wave
[A]
[E] [B] She
[F#m] knows that [A] otherwise drowning is no [E] sin
You know that when I [B] see a break, yours [F#m] is a gift
We know that we fear the [A] wind, so we act before we [E] begin
Before we [B] begin
If [E] you [A] go, [C#] [C#m]
[E] if you [B] go, you're another man
Are we [A] so [C#m]
[E] helpless against [B] the tide
Baby, [A] every dog on the [C#m] street
Knows that [E] we're in love with [B] defeat
Are we ready [A] to be swept off [C#m] our feet
