Bridge 

   Em 
We hate each other when the tide is low 
              G 
But when the tide is high 
                              C 
The love comes rushing, the love comes rushing, the love comes rushing back in 

Full flow 
   Em 
We hate each other when the tide is low 
              G 
But when the tide is high 
                              C 
The love comes rushing, the love comes rushing, the love comes rushing back in 

Full flow, back in full flow 


    Em                                              G                                C
