[Verse 1]
G                Em
We're alive and so much isn't
G                Em
We're alive and so much isn't
    G                  Em
I've got a couple of paper bags
G                   Em
We could keep our secret hidden


[Chorus]
C
I'm not making excuses
Asus                       C
I'm just weighing my anchor

You're not asking the questions
 Asus
I'm providing the answers


G Em x2  (or play intro again)


[Verse 2]
G                Em
We're alive and so much isn't
G                     Em
But what's alive in these conditions
    G                  Em            G
I still get sick from darker liquids
                        Em
But I could keep our secret hidden


[Chorus]
C
I'm not making excuses
Asus                        C
I'm just weighing my anchor

You're not asking the questions
 Asus                 C
I'm providing the answers


[Verse 3]
C                         Asus          D      C
When the corners of the Earth folded together
                           Asus          D         C
We laughed out loud and covered it in feathers, oh
               Asus
Is it time to go?
                         C
I didn't know you were waiting up
     Asus
My left hand never knows
                    C
What my right hand does
                          Asus
I didn't know you were waiting up
                          C       Asus
I didn't know you were waiting up
                                C
I didn't know you were waiting up


(C and Asus are played throughout the solo)
