Bm                                    A
The sun came down and burnt your face
Em                              A
One way ticket from love to hate
Bm                        A
Under where it all begins
Em                              A
All stood still and hollowing

[Verse]

Bm                             A
The bird that fell out of its cage
Em                          A
wants to go back there again
Bm                       A
Every star is on it's way
Em                             A
You're the only one that stayed

[Chorus]

G                            Cm
All the time you could have saved
G                      Cm
All the time you gave away


G
You know the heart beneath the waves
Cm
the one that I was trying to save
Em                                  Cm
the one that almost slipped away was mine
G
I was sinking at such pace
Cm
holding breathe beneath the waves
Em                               Cm
The time it takes to compensate is up

[Verse]

Bm                           A
Something pulls us into shape
Em                          A
Leaves your body where you lay
Bm                           A
Theories come inside my head
Em                          A
filling all the spaces left

[Chorus]

G
You know the heart beneath the waves
Cm
the one that I was trying to save
Em                                  Cm
the one that almost slipped away was mine
G
I was sinking at such pace
Cm
holding breathe beneath the waves
Em                               Cm
The time it takes to compensate is up

[Outro]

G#          Gm
I see the waves
             Cm                     F
and the time it takes for me to be saved
        G#     Gm        Cm                         F
And it's easily the most powerful thing I've ever seen
        G#        Gm
And you have to know
               Cm              F
I couldn't see it here on my own
         G#         Gm
And you have to know
              Cm                F
I couldn't see it here all alone.
