High tide, summer in the city,
G#m D#7
The kids are looking pretty,
C#m7
But isn’t it a pity
G#m D#7
That the sunshine
G#m D#7
Is followed by thunder,
G#m D#7
With thoughts of going under.
C#m7 H
And is it any wonder why the sea
D#7
Is calling out to me.
G#m G#m/F# E
I seem to spend my whole life running
H
From people who would be
D#7
The death of you and me.
G#m G#m/F#
’Cause I can feel the storm clouds
Fm+ Emaj
Sucking up my soul.

Hard time, life is getting faster
And no one has the answer.
I’m trying to face the day down
In a new way.
The bottom of a bottle
Is every man’s apostle.
Let’s run away together you and me.
Forever we’d be free,
Free to spend our whole lives running
From people who would be
The death of you and me.
’Cause I can feel the storm clouds
Sucking up my soul.

Let’s run away to sea,
D#7
Forever we’d be free,
G#m G#m/F# E
Free to spend our whole lives running

From people who would be
D#7
The death of you and me.

Coming.

I’m watching my T.V.,
D#7
Or is it watching me?
G#m G#m/F# E
I see another new day dawning.
H D#7
It’s rising over me and my mortality.
G#m G#m/F#
And I can feel the storm clouds
Fm+ Emaj
Sucking up my soul.
