Tabbed by: http://www.andreasvockrodt.de
[Intro]
D E G D
D E G D
[Verse]
D E
I was down for the count
G D
Without any real way out
E
In this new submarine
G D
Like the whale of Jonah's dreams
[Chorus]
D A
And what if I should rise up
D A
From several fathoms deep?
Bm F#m
A scar on my soul
G D A
And a humbling tale of a world
D E G D
That swallowed me whole
D E G D
Swallowed me whole
[Verse 2]
D E
It was harmless enough
G D
While acquiring all this stuff
E
But the truth in the end
G D
Was a slippery descent
[Chorus 2]
D A
And what if I should rise up
D A
From several fathoms deep?
Bm F#m
A scar on my soul
G D A
And a humbling tale of a world
D E G D
That swallowed me whole
D E G D
Swallowed me whole
[Bridge]
A
I was asleep while the angels were weeping
A
And racing below me to cushion my fall
[Interlude]
D E G D
D E G D
[Chorus 3]
D A
And I was just like Jonah
D A
Staring down the whale
Bm F#m
A scar on my soul
G D A
And a humbling tale of a world
D E G D
That swallowed me whole
D E G D
Swallowed me whole
D E G D
Swallowed me whole
D E G D
It swallowed me whole
[Outro]
D E G D
