[Verse 1]
Ebm     C#           F#          Bb
Higher yet my love, the water is rising
Ebm     C#           F#                 Bb
Up on the counter my love, grab a hold tightly
Ebm          C#             F#            B
Don't you let go my dear, I can't let you die
F#                          C#           F#
'Til you're as old as I, as old as I, as old as I

Ebm       C#              F#                Bb
Look both ways my dear, don't trip on your laces
Ebm           C#            F#                     Bb
But here you lie shot in your sleep by a bullet gone stray
Ebm          C#             F#            B
You gave me your blessing to keep you alive
F#                          C#           F#     B
'Til you're as old as I, as old as I, as old as I
        F#           C#                      Ebm
As old as I, as old as I, as old as I, as old as I

Ebm                B            C#             F#            B
And I'll give you mine for the passage of the time, for the distance

As old as I, as old as I, as old as I
          C#
For the distance

As old as I, as old as I, as old as I
