Fmaj7
[Verse 1]
AmE
Well the wind went west, she poured my drink,
Fmaj7C
Stumbled 'neath the stars on home
AmE
Couldn't find no love from the angels above
Fmaj7C
Nor the devil down below
AmE
Through all the sorrow, I learned to barrow
Fmaj7C
A song from the blackest crow
AmE
Through the wind and the hail, we fumbled and failed
Fmaj7CFmaj7G
Steady as we go, steady as we go
[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7C
And these amulets falling days
GAm
For you I'd safely, save
Fmaj7CG
And the love of the girl, she's holding precious pearls,
AmFmaj7CGAm
Buried in the waves, buried in the waves
Fmaj7C
[Verse 2]
AmE
And the hurricane came, and borrowed my name,
Fmaj7C
Scold when she clipped my wings
AmE
Neither rich nor the poor couldn't find no cure
Fmaj7C
For these sort of things
AmE
We moved along, like a bed time song,
Fmaj7C
Quiet and holy and slow
AmE
We tossed our backs, we tightened our straps,
Fmaj7CFmaj7E
Steady as we go, steady as we go
[Chorus]
AmFmaj7CG
Alright, okay, now I know
AmFmaj7CG
Here in the hands of the hands that roll the bones
AmGCE
That water, she's high, and the only one who knows
AmEFmaj7CFmaj7C
She will swallow us, swallow us, swallow us whole
Fmaj7 Am Em x3
Fmaj7
[Verse 3]
AmE
Well the hills of gold, so haunted now
Fmaj7C
Found comfort near the firelight
AmE
All the stories we told, turned us cold
Fmaj7G
Nothing's right
AmE
Now we're lost, we're lost in flame
Fmaj7C
Made a map from the power lines
AmE
Oh the city down below in the factory smoke
Fmaj7C
The words shined
Fmaj7G
Steady as we die
[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7C
And these amulets falling days,
GAm
For you I'd safely, save
Fmaj7CG
And the love of the girl, she's holding precious pearls,
AmFmaj7CG
Buried in the waves, buried in
Fmaj7 Am Em x3
Fmaj7
[Chorus]
AmFmaj7CG
Alright, okay, now I know
AmFmaj7CG
Here in the hands of the hands that roll the bones
AmGCE
And that water she's high, and the only one who knows
AmEFmaj7CFmaj7C
She will swallow, swallow, swallow us whole
AmEFmaj7CFmaj7C
She will swallow, swallow, swallow us whole
AmEFmaj7C
She will swallow, swallow, swallow us whole
