| A              | A              | A              | A              |
    (A)                   (A)
Come hell come high water,
    (A)                   (A)
come hell come high water.

[Verse 1]
     A                                    A
I’ve burned my heart in a thousand flames,
   A                                 A
baptised myself in the messes I made;
A                                  A
used up bruised up broken in chains,
        A                                A
there I found my soul and gave it a name.

[Interlude]
     Em**       D**       A
Come hell, come high water,
     Em**       D**       A
come hell, come high water.

[Verse 2]
    A                                      A
The sun took a tale to the moon in the west
        A                                      A
'bout a bulletproof smile on a woman possessed.
          A                                      A
While the storm rages on trying to shatter wings,
       A                                       A
in the light of new dawn this canary will sing.

[Interlude]
     Em**       D**       A
Come hell, come high water,
     C**        D**       E
come hell, come high water.

[Chorus 1]
    A               G
May I introduce the shape that I’m in,
D                             D
I could write a book from the scars on my skin.
   A                 G
In wars I have bled, tears I’ve drowned,
     D                                D
come hell, come high water, you ain’t bringing me down.

[Guitar Solo]
| A              | G              | D              | A              |
| A              |
| A              | G              | D              | E              |

[Chorus 1] (Reprise)
    A               G
May I introduce the shape that I’m in,
D                             D
I could write a book from the scars on my skin.
   A                 G
In wars I have bled, tears I’ve drowned,
     D                                D
come hell, come high water, you ain’t bringing me down.

[Chorus 2]
  A                     G
Believe in the truth, believe all the lies,
D                          D
I ain’t gonna run I’ve got nothing to hide.
A                G
Here is my soul, this is the sound,
     D                                            A           A
come hell, come high water, you ain’t bringing me down.

[Outro]
     Em**       D**        A
Come hell, come high water,
     Em**       D**        A
come hell, come high water,
     C**        D**        A
come hell, come high water.
