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 OUTRO (can also be played as Am the whole time): Asus4 Am Asus2 Am Asus2 Am Asus2 Am Asus4 Am Asus2 Am Asus2 Am Am Asus2
