Intro - , , ,  (x2) End On 

Verse 1 -

                                     
I'm not sure why it always goes downhill
                                 
Why broken cisterns never could stay filled
          
I've spent

Chorus -

                        
Ten years singing gravity away
                                                       
But the water keeps on falling from the sky

Verse 2 -

                                            
So here tonight while the stars are blacking out
                                       
With every hope and dream I've ever had in doubt
          
I've spent

Chorus -
     
                                    
Ten years trying to sing these doubts away
                                         
But the water keeps on falling from my eyes
                        
And heaven knows, heaven knows
                                  
I tried to find a cure for the pain
                                      
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
                       Fbar
It would be a lie to run away

Verse 3 -

            
So blood is fire
                     
pulsing through our veins
                                        
We're either riders, or fools behind the reigns
         
I've spent 

Chorus - 

                              
Ten years trying to sing it all away
                                          
But the water keeps on falling from my tries
                         
And heaven knows, heaven knows
                                 
I tried to find a cure for the pain
                             
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
                      Fbar
It would be a lie to run away
          Fbar
A lie to run away
                      Fbar
It would be a lie to run away

Bridge -
                   
It keeps on falling
                  
It keeps on falling
                  
It keeps on falling
                 
It keeps on falling
                                         
And the water keeps on falling from my eyes

End -

                        
And heaven knows, heaven knows
                                  
I tried to find a cure for the pain
                              
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
                      Fbar
It would be a lie to run away
           Fbar
A lie to run away
           Fbar
A lie to run away
