            I haul you in,        a sea of silence,
       Gsus4     G      Gsus4    G             Dsus4   D     Dsus4  D
On the border - line of truth,      hope, and violence,
Gsus4     G     Gsus4  G    Dsus4     D     Dsus4        D
       I see no sun,               I see no place I've loved,

Black - water,                take me with you,
G      Dsus4       D         Dsus4    D
To the place that...  I have spoken,
           G      Gsus5  Gsus4    G           G    Gsus5  Gsus4
Come and lead me...         ...through the darkness,

To the light that...   I long to see a - gain!

For the land that...    I long to see a - gain!
