D                     G
I can still taste the ocean
Bm             A
like it was today
D                        G     Bm
You said please keep on holding
your hand and
    Gmaj7
the rain, it came too soon, I will wait for you
             D
So love me again

Chorus:
Bm             G            D
I guess I was running from something
       A               Bm
I was running back to you
              G           D
Lost here in London with nothing
           A               Bm
I'm still running back to you
              C        D
If you could love me again
             A
I could let go of everything

If I was an island in search of castaways
Maybe I'll find you (I'll find you) here and
The rain it came too soon, I will wait for you
To love me again

Chorus

     D  A    Bm                   G          D         Em A

     D  A    Bm                   G          D         Em A
The darkest night never felt so bright with you by my side

D                                             Bm
Nothing like the rain, nothing like the rain

When you're in outer space, when you're in outer space

When you're in outer space, when you're in outer space
D                                             Bm
Nothing like the rain, nothing like the rain
               A                           G

       E
Carry on, let the good times roll
Sail along, let your path unfold
             A
It won't be long, won't be long, won't be long
                         E
You know it's gonna get better,
you know it's gonna get better
Say a prayer for the broken bones
Cause who cares? We're all going home
                 A
And it won't be long,
won't be long, won't be long
                         E
You know it's gonna get better,
you know it's gonna get better

      E                B           C#m              A
I got one foot in the golden life, one foot in the gutter
E               B           C#m              A
So close to the other side, so far from the wonder
      E                B           C#m              A
I got one foot in the golden life, one foot in the gutter
E               B                C#m             A
So sick of the tug of war, that keeps pulling me under

Chorus:
         E          B C#m A
Let the good times roll
         E          B C#m A
Let the good times roll

      E
Carry on, outlast the ignorance
       E
Moving on, survive the innocence
          A
Won't be long, won't be long, won't be long
                         E
You know it's gonna get better,
 you know it's gonna get better
