High tide, summer in the city
     Abm             Eb
The kids are looking pretty
     Dbm
But isn't it a pity
         Abm   Ebm    Abm        Eb
That the sunshine is followed by thunder
     Abm              Eb
And thoughts of going under
    Dbm
And is it any wonder

          B                 Eb
When the sea calling out to me
                     Abm   Gb   E
I seem to spend my whole life running
                      B
From people who would be
                      Eb
The death of you and me
                       Abm      Gb
'Cause I can feel the storm clouds
Db/F            E
Sucking up my soul

High tide, life is getting faster
Abm             Eb
No one has the answer
  Dbm                          Abm  Eb
I try to face the day now in a new way
    Abm           Eb
The bottom of the bottom
       Abm           Eb
'Cause every man's a puzzle

       Dbm                      B
Let's run away together you and me
                             Eb
Forever we'd be free
                   Abm    Gb   E
Free to spend our whole lives running
                       B
From people who would be
                     Eb
The death of you and me
                        Abm     Gb
'Cause I can feel the storm clouds
Db/F                  E
Sucking up my soul

Let's run away to sea
                 Eb
Forever we'd be free

Free to spend our whole lives running

'Cause I can feel the storm clouds coming

I'm watching my TV
              Eb
Or is it watching me?
              Abm  Gb   E
I see another new day dawning
                 B              Eb
It's rising over me, with my mortality
                    Abm   Gb
And I can feel the storm clouds
Db/F                Eb
Sucking up my soul
