C#m                           G#m
Time shakes, found you at the water
                     F#m                           C#m
At first you were my father, now I love you like a brother
C#m                          G#m
Earthquakes shake the dust behind you
                         F#m
This world at times will blind you

Still I know I'll see you there

Heartbreaks, the heavy world's upon your shoulders
                        F#m
Will we burn or we just smolder 
                          C#m
So now I know I found you there
C#m                         G#m        F#m
Ooooh, wanna see if you can change it, change it

Do you understand the things that you've been seein'
