G#m                 F#
Came in through the embers
E
Stayed out for the breeze
          G#m                F#
I need to feel elements to remind me
E
There's beauty when it's bleak
G#m        F#
Stuck out long before lights down
E
What do I breathe? Oh, I know

Chorus:
                 B         F#          E
The more that I love, the less that I feel
                  B     F#          E
The times that I jumped never were real
                    B         F#           E  G#m
They say that all scars will heal, but I know
F#       E
Maybe I won't
         B     F#     B    F# E
But the waves won't break my boat
F#       B     F#     B    F# E
But the waves won't break my boat

The stones crash on the boardwalk
The wind rush through the trees
I keep my eyes peeled
The memories always fall short
Of what we could've been

Left out long before last call
What do I need? Oh, I know

Chorus:
The more that I love, the less that I feel
The times that I jumped never were real
They say that all scars will heal, but I know
Maybe I won't
But the waves won't break my boat
But the waves won't break my boat

         B    F#      B   F#  E
But the waves won't break my boat
 B     F#     B    F# E
Waves won't break my boat

Chorus:
The more that I love, the less that I feel
The times that I jumped never were real
They say that all scars will heal, but I know
Maybe I won't
And the waves won't break my boat
