These Waters

 
Capo on 3rd fret
              
 
 
 
verse 1  
 
 C  G             C           G 
I saw red and yellow flowers outside over the moors 
    Em               D                      G   
And brightest sunrise ever to've touched my eyes. 
   C 
And through it all, 
  Em                  D                             C      
I stood and stumbled, waded through my thoughts and heart 
                G 
Yeah through it all, 
  Em                  D                  C        Em 
I fooled and fumbled, lost to the poet's frown. 
                       D        G             C   
I fought the wolves of patience just to let it lie down. 
 
G        D                 C 
See these waters they'll pull you up, 
G           D              C 
Oh if you're bolder than the darkness. 
  G                         D             C 
My my, let these songs be an instrument to cut, 
   G                D                  C        D 
Oh spaces 'tween the happiness and the hardness. 
C             G  
Out the door, 
Em                        D 
The touch of morning, the burning of the frost 
C 
Out the door 
Em                         D 
Strong hands to hold; good friends that I never lost. 
 
verse 2 
 
C 
And what we found 
     Em             D 
Down these coves of limestone and cockle shells, 
C 
What we found 
     Em               D                       C 
Down these roads that wander as lost as the heart, 
     Em                         D                        C 
Is a chance to breathe again, a chance for a fresh start 
    Em                              D                         C 
My, my, a chance to breathe again, a chance for a fresh start 
   Em                               D                         C 
Oh my, a chance to breathe again, a chance for a fresh start. 
 
    G            D                  C 
Oh, no, see these waters they'll pull you up, 
    G            D              C 
Oh, no, if you're bolder than the darkness. 
   G                       D            C 
My my let these songs be an instrument to cut here darling, 
    G                 D                  C 
Oh, spaces between the happiness and the hardness, 
          G                 D                  C 
Oh my my, spaces between the happiness and the hardness 
          G                 D                  C 
Oh my my, spaces between the happiness and the hardness 
          G                 D                  C       D 
Oh my my, spaces between the happiness and the hardness
