D#                  G#
Tore a line in the sun
              A#                                G#
Like there's nothing to regret and nothing to prove
D#                    G#
Set my sights high enough
      A#                                   G#
So I see the turning tides are parting for you

Chorus:
D#                      G#
Taking back an empty threat
Cm                        A#
More than you could ever know
D#                      G#
Take it back with no regrets
                  Cm                  A#
I was better off when I was on your side
And I was holding on
D#                G#
To try and not forget
Cm                       A#
Hoping that you'd never know
D#                      G#
Take it back with no regrets
                   Cm                A#
I was better off when I was on your side
                  D# G# Cm A#
And I was holding on

No more time second-guessed
Like there's nothing to forget and nothing to lose
Hold my ground long enough
'Til I see the turning tides are coming from you

Chorus:
Taking back an empty threat
More than you could ever know
Take it back with no regrets
I was better off when I was on your side
And I was holding on
To try and not forget
Hoping that you never know
Take it back with no regrets
I was better off when I was on your side

G#
If we wanna stay here, can we see the waves?
They're spilling over us, filling our insides
Cm
In the rising water, in the rising tide
A#
They're spilling over me, filling my insides
G#
If we wanna stay here, can we see the waves?
They're spilling over us, filling our insides
Cm
In the rising water, in the rising tide
A#
We wait for the fall (I gotta tell you)

G#
Maybe the water's high (I've gotta tell you)
But I can see the difference (I've gotta tell you)
Cm
Maybe the water's high (I've gotta tell you)
A#
But I can see the difference (I've gotta tell you)
G#
Maybe the water's high (I've gotta tell you)
But I can see the difference (I've gotta tell you)
Cm
Maybe the water's high (I've gotta tell you)
A#
But I know that this is different
