B E She says today is gonna be the last one B E I know there's never gonna be an easy way out B E She's rolling round the town with a fast gun B E And I know I can't be there to catch her when she falls F# E Well half way down is half way out of here F# We're either halfway drowned or half way E 'round the pier B When you're that far gone E B E Whooooo, Whoooooooo B I walked the steps to her apartment with the window by the shore E And saw her curled on the tile through a crack in the door B I've been searching for the words I don't know how to say E I've been searching for the words to make it go away B I spent all of last night and the night before that E With my feet in the sand and the wind on my back B Watching a ship sail out to a blue wide sea E There must be more than this with a kiss we can't see Chorus: F# E Well half way down is half way out of here F# We're eihter half-way drowned or half way round E the pier B I can't break her, I can't break her fall E She's lying in the back room, crying on the bathroom floor G#m Singing I can't take it, I can't take any more E Just one reason, one to believe in B E That's not that far gone, whooooo B E Not that far gone, whooooo I held the back of her head and laid her in the bed And watched the sheets raise and fall to the rhythm of her breath Turn the lock on the handle and slipped down the stairs To the cover of the night with diamonds in the air I'll say a prayer in my breath and take a left at the water To the rhythm of my feet a sister and a daughter To the rhythm of the sea with the breeze in the autumn As it blows through the trees my hands into the water Chorus G#m I can't break her, I can't break her fall E She's lying in the back room, crying on the bathroom floor G#m E And I can't take it, I can't take anymore B E She says today is gonna be the last time B E And I know there's never gonna be an easy way out You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsB E F# G#m Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
