               Dm
What are they talking about
         C
On the weekends
             Gm
Lost in the forest of this heart
               Dm
Is a foreign still

Why are they shaking their heads
We're stuck in slow life
Is it the beating of the chest
That makes us fear the rest

We're slowly sailing away
Behind closed eyes
Where not a single ray of light
Can puncture through the night

Chorus:
     A#maj7
You caught me in a tide
              Dm C
And I caught you
  Gm
Sheltered by the night
        Dm                C
Red in tooth and red in claw
    A#maj7
You saw me in new light
           Dm C
And I saw you
  Gm
Sheltered by the night
        Dm                C
Red in tooth and red in claw

Between the daylight
And the deep sea
Lies a swarm of silhouettes
Floating aimlessly

But I'm a mountain
I am a killer
You'll get lost and buried deep
If you swim with me

Chorus

                    C
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh
                    Gm
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh
                    Dm
Whoa oh, whoa oh oh

Whoa oh, whoa oh oh

    Dm
So look at you look at me
                C
All because we need to know
   A#maj7
So look at me look at you
                   Dm
All because we'll never to know
    Dm
So look at you look at me
                C
All because we need to know
    Gm
So look at me look at you
                   Dm
All because we'll never to know

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh oh
