	  		Intro: E F#m E F#m C#m G#m A  (x2) 


Verse 1:
E                   F#m 
Wving in the frozen wind 
         E 
With the flags that line 
           F#m      C#m 
the streets   Past warning 
                G#m 
signs of rat poison 
 A 
Snow beneath our feet 
E 
Through the park under 
    F#m    E 
the bridge Over the barbed 
           F#m  C#m 
wire fences   Into a tree to 
        G#m      A 
hang on with the leaves 
alone defenseless 


 
         E 
Walking along the 
F#/A#          A 
waterfront for you 
      E 
Is it alright? Is it 
F#/A#           A 
alright without you? 
         E 
We walk along the 
F#/A#          A 
waterfront for you 
      E 
Is it alright? Is it 
F#/A#           A   G G 
alright without you? 



Post-Chorus
 
E F#m E F#m C#m G#m A 


Verse 2:
 
E                      F#m 
Sailing over buildings more 
E                    G#m 
grand in former times 
  C#m                  G#m 
Remembering the towers that 
     A 
once lived there in the sky 
E 
Weaving through the twisty 
F#m    E 
blades paper thin I float 
 F#m C#m                   G#m 
away Back home to the skeleton 
   A 
we drink to warmer days 


Verse 3:
E                          F#m 
How long now have you been gone? 
E 
Seems like you just walked 
F#m              C#m 
in Here we go we go I can 
                     G#m 
still see you waving back 
A 
Through the window 



         E 
Walking along the 
F#/A#          A 
waterfront for you 
      E 
Is it alright? Is it 
F#/A#           A 
alright without you? 
         E 
We walk along the 
F#/A#          A 
waterfront for you 
      E 
Is it alright? Is it 
F#/A#           A 
alright without you? 


      E 
Is it alright? Is it 
F#/A#           A 
alright without you? 
      E 
Is it alright? Is it 
F#/A#           A 
alright without you?
