Tom: D

D                         Bm
All of this water's gonna wash me away
      G                     D
Let's find us some shelter, escape from the rain
                           Bm
Tell me what's changed and what's stayed the same
          G                       D
I've been calling and calling and calling your name


[Chorus]
          D
Make me a drifter
           Bm
Make me an albatross
         G                 D
Make the ocean it crosses

You're the west coast
           Bm
You're the growing up
          G              D Dsus D
Haven't I grown enough?

N.C.         D
Whatever it is
                  Bm   G
Just take it from me
        D
Take it from me

A                G
And we never had time
                   D
It just burned out
       A                           G
Well I hope that you're fine, that you're fine
                   D
That you find out


[Interlude]
Bm G D Bm G D


[Verse]
D                       Bm
Drifting away while you stare at the shoreline
    G                        D
The heart is a bass drum, it beats inside your mind
                       Bm
Fight it or feed it or do what the sea did
   G                               D
It took what it touched 'till that high tide receded
                                     Bm
And it's still going out, it's still going out
           G             D
It's still going out...


[Chorus]
          D
Make me a drifter
           Bm
Make me an albatross
            G                 D Dsus D
Make me the ocean it crosses

N.C.        D
Whatever it is
                      Bm G
Just take it from me
             D
Take it from me

A             G
We never have time
                   D
It just burns out
    A                             G
But things will be fine, we'll be fine
                   D
We'll all find out
