[Intro]
[Verse]
[Chorus]
Em F G Am
(When your best friend's all strung out)
Em F
You do everything you can
G Am
'Cause you're never gonna let it get 'em down
Em F G Am
(When you find it all around)
Em F G Am
Yeah, it comes in waves but it's hardest from the start
[Verse]
Am
Feelings sleeping in the field again
G
I can feel, I can feel, I can feel
Am Dm Em
It's beginning to end
Am
Premonitions smiling in the dark
G
I can see, I can see, I can see
Dm C/E F
The story's starting to arc
G
It dries up
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
I've been a spoken word
Am
I've been a river bed
Am
I've been a rabid force
Am
And let it flow out from within
G Dm C/E
Sometimes it feels like I only dream in black and white
F G
And color's so oh
[Chorus]
Em F G Am
(When your best friend's all strung out)
Em F
You do everything you can
G Am
'Cause you're never gonna let it get 'em down
Em F G Am
(When you find it all around)
Em F
Yeah you say it's what you need
G Am
And hide your eyes when you're close to me
Em F G Am
(With your feet up in the clouds)
Em F G Am
Well, it comes to waves but it's hardest from the start
[Verse]
Am
Waves in theta sleeping into dreams
G
I can feel, I can feel, I can feel
Am Dm Em
The celestial beings
Am
Wilted pleasures leave you with a breath
G
I can see, I can see, I can see
Dm C/E F
The beauty in the mess
G
It dries up
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
I've been a river bed
Am
I tried to salt the wound
Am
I've carried more than I can
Am
I feel I've got a lot to prove
G Dm C/E
Sometimes it feels like I only dream in black and white
F G
And color's so oh
[Chorus]
Em F G Am
(When your best friend's all strung out)
Em F
You do everything you can
G Am
'Cause you're never gonna let it get 'em down
Em F G Am
(When you find it all around)
Em F
Yeah you say it's what you need
G Am
And hide your eyes when you're close to me
Em F G Am
(With your feet up in the clouds)
Em F G Am
You oughta know that I'm here no matter where you wanna go
Em F G Am
(With your head hanging upside down)
Em F G Am
Well, it comes to waves but it's hardest from the start
[Bridge]
F Am G Em F
I am here, no matter where you are
Am G Em
I'm waiting here with open arms
F
No matter where you are
Am G Em
Sometimes you have to wait until it passes by
F
Like a satellite or star
Am G Em
No matter where you are
[Instrumental]
