Verse 1
(C#m) There's still so far (A) to go and I can't feel my (E) toes
(E) When the rain soaks through the (B) heels and slips to the (C#m) sole
(C#m) Yeah, the blades are two feet tall, (A) I wade in green
(E) I'm movin' forward, to where? God only (B) knows
(C#m) Feel the wind's harsh (A) refrain like the clouds gripped my (E) face
(E) Saying, "It's alright to (B) run from all this (C#m) pain"
(C#m) Oh, and when it's time to go (A) with one last breath that's (E) in my lungs
(E) I'll scream, (B) "It's all for love," I'll scream, "It's all for (A) love"
Chorus
(A) Come and kiss me, (E) salt (A) water
(A) Oh, finally, (E) I feel, at three or four (B) degrees
(B) I'm free in (E) salt (A) water
(A) Embrace the (E) deep and leave every (B) thing
(B) It was just a (C#m) dream
Verse 2
(C#m) I can see it up ahead (A) where the sky meets the (E) ground
(E) And after that, there's only (B) moving (C#m) grey
(C#m) I am filled up with (A) regret
(A) With things I did or (E) never said, just leave that well (B) alone
Chorus
(B) And Come and kiss me, (E) salt (A) water
(A) Oh, finally, (E) I feel, at three or four (B) degrees
(B) I'm free in (E) salt (A) water
(A) Embrace the (E) deep and leave every (B) thing
(B) It was just a (F#m) dream
Post Chorus
(Ah-ah) (B) It was just a (C#m) dream

Ah-ah (B) It was just a (E) dream
(A) Was it just a (C#m) dream?
Bridge
(C#m) Now, I'm standing (A) on the edge, gazing into (E) hell
(E) Or is it somethin' else? (B) I just can't (C#m) tell
(C#m) When there's nothin' (A) left, I close my eyes and (E) take one step
(E) And say, "Well, here it (B) goes," I say, "Well, here it (A) goes"
Chorus
(A) Come and kiss me, (E) salt (A) water
(A) Oh, finally, (E) I feel, at three or four (B) degrees
(B) I'm free in (E) salt (A) water
(A) Embrace the (E) deep and leave every (B) thing
(B) It was just a (E) dream
(A) (E) (B)
