[Verso 1]
Bm D G A
Is this as bad as it gets or is it gonna get better?
Bm D G A
Is this some kind of test, or will it be like this forever?
Bm D
'Cause I ain't ever see a cloud this dark
G A
And I ain't ever been down this far
Bm D G
Is this as bad as it gets or is it gonna get better?
[Refrão]
Bm D G
I know it ain't gonna be no easy ride
A
And what doesn't kills you makes you stronger
Bm D G
But I'm running out of places I can hide
A
And every day it's like the nights get longer
Bm D G
When I close my eyes, yeah, the waves get high
A
And the flames get hotter
Bm D G
So I'm asking myself 'cause I can't tell
A
If this is hell or just high water?
Bm D G A
[Verso 2]
Bm D G A
Is the tide gonna turn or will it keep on rising?
Bm D G
Is it all gonna burn out and strike like lightning?
A
'Cause I'm fighting and I'm just
Bm D
Hangin' on to any thread of hope
G A
Wonderin' if I should just let go
Bm D G
'Cause it's killin' me to just keep on climbin'
N.C.
Lookin' for a silver lining
[Refrão]
Bm D G
I know it ain't gonna be no easy ride
A
And what doesn't kills you makes you stronger
Bm D G
But I'm running out of places I can hide
A
And every day it's like the nights get longer
Bm D G
When I close my eyes, yeah, the waves get high
A
And the flames get hotter
Bm D G
So I'm asking myself 'cause I can't tell
A
If this is hell or just high water?
Bm D G A
[Ponte]
Bm D G A
Ohh-oh-ohh, will it ever be over?
Bm D G
Ohh-oh-ohh, am I two steps back, or one step closer
[Refrão]
Bm D G
I know it ain't gonna be no easy ride
A
And what doesn't kills you makes you stronger
Bm D G
But I'm running out of places I can hide
A
And every day it's like the nights get longer
Bm D G
When I close my eyes, yeah, the waves get high
A
And the flames get hotter
Bm D G
But I'm tellin' myself 'cause I know damn well
A Bm
That this ain't hell
D G
It's just high water
A Bm
High water
D G
It's just high water
