A                  E
How did you end up in it
A   E
Who knows
F# A E Esus4 E Esus2 E
Ahhh quicksand

[Verse 1]
Esus4 E Esus4 E
       A
You're looking for a handhold
                 E
Just plants all around
A
Don't feel bad they're like that
          E
Rooted to their ground
   A
An animal comes closer
E
Searching for a prey
A
Quickly takes one caress
         E
And then walks away

[Chorus]
F# A E Esus4 E Esus2 E
Ahhh quicksand
B A  E Esus4 E Esus2 E
Ahhh quicksand

[Verse 2]
Esus4 E Esus4 E
      A
Don't thrash around, don't panic
E
Further down you sink
      A
Don't bother screaming out
      E
"it's your fault" they think
A
Even if you made it out
                E
Where would you go now
    A
The road is long and bare
       E
You're tired anyhow

[Chorus]
F# A E Esus4 E Esus2 E
Ahhh quicksand
B A  E Esus4 E Esus2 E
Ahhh quicksand
F#5 G#5 A5 E Esus4 E Esus2 E
Ahhhhhhhhh quicksand
B5 Bb5 A5  E Esus4 E Esus2 E
Ahhhhhhhhh quicksand

[Bridge]
     D       A
So relax yourself
E                B
set your mind at ease
  D        A
enjoy this moment
   E         B
of quiet and bliss

The sun is shining
    E                A
And life is a moment
