      [Intro]
D F#m G A (x4)

[Verse]
D                   F#m             G                 A
I've been down thinking about the boat that never ever touches water
          D           F#m             G                 A
but the ground still moves
D                   F#m             G                 A
We all move at the speed of sound but time stands still when you're standing 'round
          D           F#m             G                 A
so where will you stand?
          D           F#m             G                 A
where will you stand?

[Verse]
D                   F#m             G                 A
I've been round thinking about the boat that never ever touches water
          D           F#m             G                 A
and the sound of the waves as they crash against your body
D                   F#m             G                 A
We all move at the speed of light, the miracle of motion I almost lose my mind
          D           F#m             G                 A
but what I find is you
          D           F#m             G                 A
it's you

[Chorus 1]
Em                     F#m
We're all poor till the day we die
           G                      A
We all learn to read the smoke before we see the fire
          Em              F#m
without the fire from the sun
                 G          A
we don't see the moon
Em                     F#m
Tides turns against the sand
           G                      A
and the tides keep turning 'til they cover up the land
     Em          F#m     G           A
and soon it will end so where will you
     Em          F#m     G           A
and soon it will end so where will you
  D F#m G A x4
stand?

[Chorus 2]
Em                     F#m
We're all poor till the day we die
           G                      A
We all learn to read the smoke before we see the fire
          Em              F#m
without the fire from the sun
                 G          A
we don't see the moon
Em                     F#m
Tides turns against the sand
           G                      A
and the tides keep turning 'til they cover up the land
     Em          F#m     G           A
and soon it will end so where will you
     Em          F#m     G           A
and soon it will end so where will you
     Em          F#m     G           A
uuuuuuuuu
     Em          F#m     G           A
staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand
     Em          F#m     G           A (hold)
will you       staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand

[Outro]
      D  F#m   G         A
and will you stand with me?
      D F#m  G         A
will you    stand with me?
      D F#m  G         A
will you    stand with me?
      D F#m  G         A
will you    stand with me?
