D A Bm G

[Verse 1]
G
Clear blue water
G                              D
High tide came and brought you in
    D
And I could go on and on,
on and on, and I will
G
Skies grew darker
G                       D
Currents swept you out again
                  D
And you were just gone and gone,
gone and gone

[Pre-Chorus]
   G                  Bm
In silent screams, in wildest dreams
  G
I never dreamed of this

[Chorus]
     D
This love is good,
this love is bad
     A
This love is alive back
                      Bm
from the dead, oh-oh, oh

These hands had to let
               G
it go free, and
                                    D
This love came back to me, oh-oh, oh
         A          Bm G
Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh

Tossing, turning

Struggled through the

night with someone new

Baby, I could go on and on,
on and on

Lantern, burning
                           D
Flickered in my mind, only you

But you were still gone,
gone, gone

Been losing grip, on sinking ships

You showed up just in time
