First Reactions After Falling Through The Ice

	  		



Intro: 

F  F  Am  Am  Em  Em  C   Em 
F  F  Am  Am  Em  Em  C   Em 


        F 
 I knew it was far too late to 
 Am 
 Walk out on the lake then 
 Em 
 Halfway-to-the-middle thawed 
 C              Em       F 
 I wasn’t doing all that great 
F 
 Had I cut my hair short? 
Am                        Em 
 Had I grown my beard out long? 
Em 
 Had I gone to school or...? 
C              Em         Am 
 Why do all my plans fall through? 


Am 
 There’s a leak in the basement 
Am 
 Stupid permanent estrangement 
Am 
 Casement windows need glazing 
Am 
 Hinges and arms need be replaced 


F 
 All the way at the edge 
   Am 
 I said, "I think that we should head back. 
Em 
 What if now the ice cracked? 
C                  Em 
 I think I felt it bend" 
F 
 We took opposite steps 
Am 
 Tried to even the stress 
Em 
 Picked a safe direction but 
     C                      Em 
 You never know the way the ice thins 


Dm 
 Half-asleep in dreams where 
C 
 Ceilings start collapsing 
Am 
 Free fall through the roof beams 
Am 
 Get startled back awake 
   Dm 
 Before you hit the pavement 
C 
 Floor of the foundation 
Am 
 Water in the basement 
Am 
 Bodies in the lake 


        F 
 "Don’t panic," I could hear you 
 Am 
 Saying as I fell through 
Em                  C 
 Blackness complete down 
                 Em           F 
 Waiting till my feet touched ground 
F 
 At the bottom, they finally did 
Am 
 First reaction was, "This is it" 
Em                            C 
 Next thought was, "Just stay calm, 
              Em        Dm 
 Kick up, and save your phone" 


Dm   C   Am   Am 


Dm                             F 
 'Cause I wanted to tell you... 
Em 
 And I thought you should know... 


Dm 
 Because I thought it might scare you 
F 
 To see me under the ice 
Am 
 Make you remember you cared for me 
Am 
 What would you do if I died? 
Dm 
 Would you fly out for my funeral? 
C 
 Get too drunk at my wake? 
Am 
 Would you make a scene, then 
Am                             F 
 Climb in and try to resuscitate me? 


F   Am   C   Dm 


F            Am 
I was on the ice and 
C          Dm 
I was underwater 


F 
 I was getting pulled out 
F 
 I was in my wet clothes 
Dm 
 Stumble on the walk back 
Dm                        Am 
 Someone stoked the fire at camp 
Am 
 I was by the flames 
Am 
 Trying to get my body warm 
Dm 
 I was standing naked 
Dm                               Dm 
 Checking to see if my phone still worked 


Dm 
 I will cut my hair short 
Dm 
 Trust me 
   Am 
 I will; I will let my beard go 
Am 
 Trust me 
   C 
 I will; I will never tempt fate 
C 
 Not once 
   G 
 I swear, I will never trust ice 
G           G7      Am 
 I will never trust a thing
