G#m
On the banks of the deep end
F# C#m
Where your soul is your best friend
G#m
Searching for a reason
B F#
To go astray
G#m
Wild dreams turn to nightmares
F# C#m
Silver clouds turn to golden stairs
G#m
And everything that you used to know
B F#
Is slipping away
G#m B F# G#m B F#
G#m
Here i've got my puzzle piece
F# C#m
Only got it for a short term lease
G#m
No time for asking
B F#
No going back to get hurt
G#m
I take a little from the mixture
F# C#m
Try to fit it into the picture
G#m
Got a place where you're standing
B F#
Dig your shoes into the dirt
E B
Trying hard to get back
F#
Runnin' on the stones
E B
Put you on my shoulders
Eb7
We can be the only one
E B
See the world's still spinning 'round
F# G G#m
Gettin' dizzy when we look
G#m B F# G#m B F#
G#m
There's a reason to be home
F# C#m
There's a feeling when you smile
G#m
But it feels like it might take over
B F#
This feeling deep inside
G#m
And there's a distance down the line
F# C#m
Far away from the station
G#m
We can leave it all behind
B F#
On a rolling creation
E B
Sit away from the window
F#
And lock the door
E B
Can't you learn from the last time
Eb7
And the time before
E B
See the world's still spinning 'round
F# G G#m
Gettin' dizzy when we look
G#m B F# G#m B F#
E A
Got to leave town
C#m B
To see the yellow flowers bloom
Bm A
Sun going down
C#m Eb7
It's gonna be, gonna be rising soon
G#m
On the banks of the deep end
F# C#m
Twisted as a riverbend
G#m
Searching for a reason
B F#
To go astray
Solo

G#m
You couldn't hire twenty five men
F# C#m
To do what the man could do
G#m
Just the sound of his walking
B F#
Could split the whole damn town in two
G#m
Into the night full of shadows
F# C#m
He still walks when the thunder rolls
G#m
This river ain't shallow
B F#
Reminds us that the bell still tolls
E B
Bears in the kitchen
F#
Tigers on tv
E B
The singer's pretending
Eb7
That this song's for me
E B
See the world's still spinning 'round

Gettin' dizzy when we look
G#m B F# G#m B F#
G#m
You took a wrong turn down by the waterline
F# C#m
I heard they had to drag you off the sand
G#m
Find a dune and the wind will miss you
B F#
Hold on to a piece of dry land
G#m
Got to hold on to a piece of dry land
G#m
Got to hold on to a piece of dry land
G#m B F# G#m B F# x 2
