Intro - , , /, repeat once
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
/
/, , , /
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
/
It would be a lie to run away
/
It would be a lie
/
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
/
It would be a lie to run away
/
It would be a lie to run away
Dsus/ DsusF# (Don't know last chord that it ends on)
