If I’m a desert,
D
My face is the wind
Em
I know where I’m going
C
And I know where I’ve been
G D
You’re the horizon and the wide open space
Em C
And I surround you caressing your face
G
There’s not a limit to the things that I’d Do
D
I’d give you stars but the stars wouldn’t Do
Em
You’re like the lava burning buried below
C
An eruption but too early to show
G
We are islands
D
Hear our sirens
Em
And so we wait… (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
C
We wait… (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
G
‘Cause when pressure heightens
D
Our coal makes diamonds
Em
And so we wait… (wait, down, in front of me)
C
We wait… (wait, down, wait, down)
G
The flood comes shifting the soil
D
Our blood runs thicker than oil
Em
It’s like erosion cutting straight to the core
C
No human nature ever felt this before
G
And we become an unbreakable vow
D
I wanna hold you up, higher than most
Em C
Because it feels like flying out
G
We are islands
D
Hear our sirens
Em
And so we wait… (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
C
We wait… (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
G
‘Cause when pressure heightens
D
Our coal makes diamonds
Em
And so we wait… (wait, down, in front of me)
C
We wait… (wait, down, wait, down)
(Wait, down, in front of me)
G
We are islands
D
Hear our sirens
Em
And so we wait… (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
C
We wait… (wait, down, put it right in front of me)
G
‘Cause when pressure heightens
D
Our coal makes diamonds
Em
And so we wait… (wait, down, in front of me)
C
We wait… (wait, down, wait, down)
Wait, down, in front of me.
Wait, down.
