Undertow

Esus E C#m A 
The curtains are drawn now the fire warms the room 
Am Esus Bm C#m 
Meanwhile, outside, wind from the north-east chills the air 
F#m D A 
It will soon be snowing out there 
Am Esus Bm C#m 
And some, there are, cold they prepare for a sleepless night 
F#m D A 
Maybe this will be their last fight 
C#m A C#m A 
But we‘re safe in each other‘s embrace, all fears go as I look on your face 
 
D E Bm D A 
Better think awhile or I may never think again 
D G Gm 
If this were the last day of your life my friend 
F#m B 
Tell me what do you think you would do then 
 
E Amaj7 
Stand up to the blow that fate has struck upon you 
E Amaj7 
Make the most of all you still have coming to you 
F#m F#m7 B 
Lay down on the ground and let the tears run from you 
C#m A B 
Crying to the grass and trees and heaven finally on your knees 
 
E Amaj7 
Let me live again let life come find me wanting 
E Amaj7 
Spring must strike again against the shield of winter 
F#m F#m7 B 
Let me feel once more the arms of love surround me 
C#m A G#sus G# C# 
Telling me the danger‘s past, I need not fear the icy blast again 
 
Esus E C#m A 
Laughter and music and perfume linger here 
Am Esus Bm C#m 
And there, and there, wine flows from flask to glass and mouth 
F#m D A 
As it soothes confusing our doubts 
Am Esus Bm C#m 
And soon, we feel, why do a single thing today 
F#m D A 
There‘s tomorrow sure as I‘m here 
C#m A C#m A 
So the days they turn into years, and still no tomorrow appears 
 
D E Bm D A 
Better think awhile or I may never think again 
D G Gm 
If this were the last day of your life my friend

Crying to the grass and trees and heaven finally on your knees
