Song structure:
Csus4 C Csus4 riff
us4
Back when I used to wander, I was always out looking for signs
us4
But they were never there, so I'd pull 'em from the air
Csus4 C Csus4 riff
We all believed in something, but like you I can't say why
It's just a whisper in our ear, or a bottle for our fears
Hold me to the light, let me shine
Come hold me against the floor, and say it's alright
us4
Come hold me 'neath the water's skin, till I'm new again
I said what I was thinking, now you can't see what's good till it's gone
us4
Then there's something to be said, for a place to lay your head
Csus4 C Csus4 riff
You told me I was simple, and you envied me that piece of mind
ss4
And I listened to the creek, and it did much more for me
I'll hold you to the light, let you shine
I'll hold you against the floor, and say it's alright
'cause down beneath the water's skin, where we will swim
There's diamonds on the surface then, and they'll come clean us
us4
(We'll) both live again
Csus4 C Csus4 riff
These days I barely wander, and I don't need no more of them signs
Csus4 C G (strum)
I just breathe in all that air, and be happy that it's there
