VERSE:
N/C
We get to be a ripple in the water
N/C
We get to be a rock that’s thrown
N/C
We get to be a boy on the bridge
N/C
Standing over the reservoir
1 2 3 4 5
I see the water lapping on the shoreline
1 2 3 4 5
Buried forest of a man made lake
1 2 3 4 5
Cemeteries are laying underneath it
1 2 3 4 5
Your heart like a damn when it breaks
CHORUS:
D C
We’re floating we’re swimming
G
And at this moment we are forgetting
D C
What we caused what it takes
G N/C
The one perfect world when we look the other way
FILL :
[1 2 3 4 5]
VERS: (same)
I’m okay if I don’t look a little closer
I’m okay I if don’t see beyond the shore
I’m okay I don’t have to do the killing or
Know what the killing is for
CHORUS:
D C
We’re talking we’re driving
G
And in this moment we are denying
D C
What we caused what it takes
G
The one perfect world when we look the other way
Em A D
One perfect world…when we look the other way
Em A D
One perfect world…
FILL :
[1 2 3 4 5]
VERS: (same)
You can see beyond the middle isolation
And the miracle of daybreak doesn’t move you anymore
Connect the points and then see the constellations
As the night comes down on the reservoir
CHORUS: (same)
We’re swimming we’re floating
And in this moment we are beholden
To what we’ve caused to what it takes
The one perfect world
Can we learn to live another way
Perfect world…can we learn to live another way
One…perfect world
[1 2 3 4 5] Get to be a ripple in the waterD
