Bm                    A                 D
Funny how a blessing feels just like a curse
Bm                           A                  D
Bad love hurts, but somehow good love hurts me worse
        Bm                   A             D
'Cause lately I'm mistaking honey for the bees
Bm                        A                 D
Having troubles sleeping with you next to me

   Bm      A        D    Em
I sink in you like water
 Bm       A            D
Pray you won't pull me under
Bm
One look and I die
 A
Heaven in your eyes
 D                      Em
Held hard in the white light
   Bm      A        D
I dive in you like water
               Bm A
I sink like a stone

Chorus:
Bm A           D  Em
Stone in your water
Bm A           D
Stone in your water

Tell the truth, you know you can not keep me safe
There's more pain in love than we can find in hate
Lately I've been keeping honey from the bees
So if you ever leave, at least it's bittersweet

I sink in you like water
Pray you won't pull me under
One look and I die
Heaven in your eyes
Held hard in the white light
I dive in you like water
I sink like a stone

Chorus - x2

    G            Em
Be gentle with me
      Bm               F#m
Have patience with me, oh
        G
'Cause I've been in the corner of my mind that tells me
Em7                                  Bm
I'm not good enough for anybody like you
                                       D
Help me out, you know I need you like water

Chorus - x2
