INTRO: E Esus* E Esus
E
when you come across the sea
D(9)*
me like a beacon guiding you to safety
the sooner the better now
E
and when you come the hills
will breathe like a baby
D(9)
pulled up heaving from the bottom of the ocean
the sooner the better now
E
when you come to cover me with your kisses
D(9)
fresh like a daisy chained up in a lion’s den
E
I’ll know you by the thunderclap
D(9)
pouring like a rain of blood to my emotions
C#m
and that is why
B E
I stumble to my knees
B A
and why underneath the heavens
B A
with the stars burning and exploding
B A G
I know I could never let you down
E
when you come

E
when you come like an iceberg float in darkness
D(9)
smashing my hull send me to the bottom of the sea
I should know you better now
E
when you come your majesty to entrap me
D(9)
prince of light receding
the sooner the better now
E
and when you come to cover me
D(9)
with your kisses hard like armour
the sooner the better now
E A B E
I’ll know you by
the thunderclap
D(9)
pouring like a rain of blood to my emotions
and that is why
I stumble to my knees
and why underneath the heavens
with the stars burning and exploding
I know I could never let you down

E D(9)
she came out of the water
E
into my horizon
D(9)
like a cumulo nimbus
E
coming in from a distance
D(9)
burning and exploding
E
burning and exploding
D(9)
like a slow volcano
E D(9) [etc. … ]
when you come
cover the ground with ashes
when you come
