Lyrics

(you.) Stripped to the waist, we fall in to the riv er.

Cov er your eyes so you don’t know the sec ret.

I’ve been try ing to (F)hide.

We held our breath to see our names were writ ten

on the wreck of eight y (C)six.

That was the year I knew the pan ic was o ver.

Yes, since we found (Dm7)out, since we found out that an y thing could (F)hap pen.

An y thing could hap pen.

An y thing could (Dm7)hap pen.

An y thing could hap pen.

An y thing could (F)hap pen.

An y thing could hap pen.

An y thing could.

Af ter the war we said we’d fight to geth er.

I guess we thought that’s just what hu mans do.

Let ting dark ness (F)grow as if we need it’s pal ette and we need it’s col our.

But now I’ve seen it (Dm7)through and now I know the truth, that an y thing could (F)hap pen.

An y thing could hap pen.

An y thing could (Dm7)hap pen.

An y thing could hap pen.

An y thing could (F)hap pen.

An y thing could hap pen.

An y thing could.

Ba (F)by,

I’ll give you ev ’ry thing you (Dm)need.

I’ll give you ev ’ry thing you (F)need, oh.

I’ll give you ev ’ry thing you (Dm)need.

(CN.C.)But I don’t think I need hap pen.

An y thing.

I (CN.C.)know it’s gon na be.

I know it’s gon na be.

I know it’s gon na be.

I know it’s gon na be.

I know it’s gon na be.

I know it’s gon na be.

I know it’s gon na be.

I know it’s gon na be.

Oh.

(C)you.)

(But I don’t think I need (C)you.)

(But I don’t think I need (But I don’t think I need (CN.C.)you.)
