[Verse]
G E
The grave yard has spoken,
D
a fog rolled on the lake,
C
the causeway lights are low,
G
I wander through the rainfall
F C G
and wonder where you are
G E
We left the car in northbridge
D
neither one could drive,
C
walked to whitensville,
G
found a cemetery,
F C G
layed under the headstones
[Chorus]
F C G
No fear of drowning we went sailing,
F C G
dropped the anchor run to shore,
F C G
by the salty air we felt apprehensive,
F C G
like a moment you can’t feel until it’s gone
[Verse]
G E
Being melodramatic,
D
I pretend to die
C
as you climbed on my back
G
and covered up my eyelids,
F C G
with pennies I adored it.
G E
Lightning cracked the skyline,
D
light the august night
C
I carried you down the road,
G
my charade is over
F C G
alone out on our own
[Chorus]
F C G
No fear of drowning we went sailing,
F C G
dropped the anchor run to shore,
F C G
by the salty air we felt apprehensive,
F C G
like a moment you can’t feel until it’s gone
F C G
Friends they die to become lovers
F C G
While lovers die to just stay friends
F C G
Lovers die to just stay friends
[Verse]
G E
You offer me the whiskey
D
as I shake off the cold,
C
rain rolled in your eye,
G
we thought we were lonely
F C G
together all along
G E
The graveyard is empty,
D
the fog rolled off the lake,
G
I wander through the rainfall,
F C G
and wonder where you are
[Chorus]
F C G
No fear of drowning we went sailing,
F C G
dropped the anchor run to shore,
F C G
by the salty air we felt apprehensive,
F C G
like a moment you can’t feel until it’s gone
F C G
Friends they die to become lovers
F C G
While lovers die to just stay friends
F C G
Lovers die to just stay friends
F C G
F C G
[Outro]
F C G
I'm so scared the hour is fading
F C G
The streetlights of dusk will come on
F C G
death ain't the thing I'm afraid of
F C G
It's leaving you here alone
F C G
Death ain't the thing I'm afraid of
F C G
It's leaving you here alone
F C G
leaving you here alone
