Am               F              C
When I go, won’t let you follow hangin’ on my sleeve
Am               F               C
When I go, won’t let you follow; ordinary rock around your neck

Am  F  C

Am              F                C
Ebb and flow is all we’ve got to ease what we’ve become
Am              F                C
Ebb and flow is all we’ve got to tell our stories; get it straight for once

Am  F  C

C              F             C
Just call it a dying man’s request
C              F                   C
Just call it a drowning man’s last breath

Am                    F
But the love does not stop
Am            F
not once it’s begun

C                                Am
You can have your balcony by the sea
C                                   Am
Watch the waves crashing down, each one erasing me

C              F             C 
Just call it a dying man’s request
C              F         C
Just call it a hangman’s mask

Am  F  C
humhumhum

Am              F               C
When I go won’t let you follow, hangin’ on my sleeve
Am               F               C
When I go, won’t let you follow; ordinary rock around your neck

Am  F  C

Am              F                C 
Ebb and flow is all we’ve got to ease what we’ve become
Am              F                C
Ebb and flow is all we’ve got to tell our stories, get it straight for once

Am  F  C

C              F             C
Just call it a dying man’s request
C              F                   C
Just call it a drowning man’s last breath

Am                    F
But the love does not stop
Am            F
not once it’s begun

C                                Am
You can have your balcony by the sea
C                                   Am
Watch the waves crashing down, each one erasing me

C              F             C 
Just call it a dying man’s request
C              F         C
Just call it a hangman’s mask
C               F              C
Just say it’s a matter for the courts
C                F             C
Just call it the scars upon my fists
C               F            C
Just place your head upon my own
C           F             C
before this tie becomes a noose
C          F               C
Constantly bleeding, never listening
C           F                  C
And when we meet we’ll meet as friends
C       F                C
And for all those absent songs
C             F                C
I name you my blood, you’re my blood
C          F                  C
And we may dress ourselves as wolves
C            F              C
And leave me cold upon your doorstep
C          F                C
Because my ghosts are never gone
C            F                    C
Because your baby’s heart’s still beating

Am                      F
Cause the love does not stop
Am            F
Not once it’s begun
Am                   F
No the love does not stop
Am                F
The love does not stop

C                                Am
You can have your balcony by the sea
C                                   Am
Watch the waves crashing down, each one erasing me
C                                Am    
You can have your balcony by the sea, the sea, the sea
C                                   Am
Watch the waves crashing down, each one erasing me [x4]
