B  D#m G#m
And
E              B  D#m G#m
If I lost the map
E            B  D#m G#m
If I lost it all
   E              B D#m G#m E
I fell into the trap
Then she goes

Chorus
E
When you’re tired of
F#
waiting so you just
D#m
Find that you never
          E
left the start
E        C#m        E
Come on baby don’t let
               B
it break your heart

Though heavily we bled
Still, on we crawl
Trying to catch a cannonball
And a slow burning tide
Through my veins is flowing
From my shipwreck, I heard her call
And she sang

Chorus:
When you're tired of aiming your arrows
Still, you never hit the mark, oh-oh
And even in your rains and shadows
Still, we're never gonna part, oh-oh
Come on, baby, don’t let it break your heart

       E                 B
Don’t let it break your heart
Don’t let it break your heart
Don’t let it break your heart
