The Waves

Written by Dan Smith

	  		
Intro 
E G#m B F# 

verse 1 
                              E        G#m    B 
Staring down the barrel of a hundred tons 

(We're on the way) 
    F#                               E               G#m   B 
It might be getting older, but the night's still young 

(We're on the way) 
     F#                          E         G#m     B 
We never, never give up on the lost boy life 

(We're on the way) 
     F#                             E        G#m   B     F# 
So here we are, escaping from the world outside 

(We're on the way) 

Pre-Chorus 
 E                                 G#m                            F# 
Oh, what would your mother say if she could see what we're doing now? 
 E                                 G#m                            F# 
Oh, what would your mother say if she could hear what we talk about? 

tabchorus
E B F# The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again E B The waves are crashing down on you and me F# I'll see you on the other side E B F# Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh E B F# Caught up in, caught up in the waves

E G#m B verse 2 F# E G#m B Suddenly we're fallin' through the twilight zone (We're on the way) F# E G#m B Watch the party playing out in slow motion (We're on the way) F# E G#m B So tie a ribbon 'round my arm and throw me in (We're on the way) F# E G#m B F# Is it an apocalypse or nihilism on your lips? We sink or swim (We're on the way) Pre-Chorus E G#m F# Oh, what would your mother say if she could see what we're doing now? E G#m F# Oh, what would your mother say if she could hear what we talk about? (Hey)
tabchorus
E B F# The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again E B The waves are crashing down on you and me F# I'll see you on the other side E B F# Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh E B F# Caught up in, caught up in the waves

E G#m F# x2 Bridge E G#m The air hit me on the way out F# Did it make me more sober or make me more drunk? E G#m F# I couldn't quite remember the vision of you and of me E G#m The air hit me on the way out F# Did it make me more sober or make me more drunk? E G#m F# I couldn't quite remember the vision of you and of me
tabchorus
E B F# The waves are crashing down on you and me again, again, again E B The waves are crashing down on you and me F# I'll see you on the other side E B F# Get carried, get carried away, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh E B F# Caught up in, caught up in the wave

Outro E B F# They're crashing down, they're crashing down, oh E B They're crashing down on you and me F#m I'll see you on the other side
