Rainer Maria Hell and High Water Lyrics

Key: F#
Chords used:
Intro: B-- x4
Verse 1:
I've seen the girl
who'll pick up where
I leave off she's
already smoothing her
hands for the pictures
I've seen her sorting
through my memories
what's sweet? what's
bitter? she wants
what I can't give her
Interlude:
F#--G#m-F#--G#m--F#--B-- x2
Verse 2:
I've seen the girl
who'll chew up what
I bite off she's
devising a better
mouth just to kiss
you any minute I'll
have to surrender
to her wishes what
to take and what to
set free? I wonder
if she'll miss me
Verse 3:
I've seen the girl
who'll be brave when
I run off she's been
picking her fights
like she knows how
to win them and
I've seen her sorting
through my memories
what's sweet? what's
bitter? she wants
what I can't give her
Chorus 1:
Every time I try to
get out of her way
the day is full of
kids giving you the
finger and speeders
gonna kill you on
your tiny street
she wants to beat
through all the
hell and high water
threatening what
she believes that's
when I know I should
just drop everything
and let her sing
she's a better
version of me
Verse 4:
I've seen the girl
who'll remember what
I lost she has never
forgotten a name or
a punchline she is
the one that I have
chosen I'm lost but
she's found a better
way to get around
Verse 5:
I've seen the girl
who'll pick up where
I leave off she's
already smoothing her
hands for the pictures
I've seen her sorting
through my memories
what's sweet? what's
bitter? she wants
what I can't give
her I'm lost but
she's found I'm
better way I
get around
Chorus 2:
Every time I try to
get out of her way
the day is full of
kids giving you the
finger and speeders
gonna kill you on
your tiny street
she wants to beat
through all the
hell and high water
threatening what
she believes that's
when I know I should
just drop everything
and let her sing
she's a better
version of me
Outro:
I tell myself
I tell myself
you're not a fool
I tell myself
I tell myself
F# E B F#(hold)
you're not a fool
