[A] [E]
[C]
[B] [F]
[A]
[E] [C]
[B] [F] I knew it was far too [A] late to walk out on the [E] dead of a [C] middle-class life
[B] Doing all [F] that great, had I got my [A] hair short
Had I got my [E] beard all long, had I gone to [C] school or
Why do [B] all my plans [E] fall through?
I saw you in the basement, I saw your permanent estrangement
I saw the window be glazing and your chest and arms be [F] replaced
All the way at the [A] edge, I said I think I should head [Em] back
But what if now the [C] ice cracked, the [B] cup doesn't [F] bend
We took opposite [A] steps, tried to even the [E] stress
Made the same [C] correction but you'll never know [B] the way the ice [D] meant
Endlessly in dreams [C] where ceilings start collapsing
[A] Three holes in [Am] the roof, feet stand startled back awake
[D] Before you hit the [C] pavement, floor the foundation
[Am] Water in the basement, bodies in the [F] lake, don't panic
I can hear [A] you say, it's like a [E] little black mist
[C] Keep me down, wait till [B] my feet [F] touch ground
If the bottom is [A]
permitted, my pre-emption was [E] implicit
Next level [C] was something I'll kick [B] off to save [D] your mom
[C]
[Am] [A]
[D] Because I wanted to tell [Dm] you,
[Em] but I thought you [E] should know
[D]
Because I thought it might [C] scare you to see me under the [Am] ice
To make you remember you cared for me, what would you do if I [D] died?
Would you cry out for my [C] funeral?
You're too drunk in my [Am] wake, would you make a scene?
And climbing and trying to risk everything
[D] [F]
I [A] [D] [C]
[F]
[E] was in my wet [D]
block, struggling on the walkway
Someone spooked the fire, [Am] I was like a flint
Trying [C] to get my [B] body warm, I was standing naked
Checking to see if my bones still [A] worked, I will cut my hair [D] short
[Dm] [Am] I will, [A] I'm here to [Am] go, trust [D] me, [C] I will
Now [B] what?
[G] I will never trust ice, I will never trust a [A] blade
