[Intro] F Bb Bb F Dm Bb C F F Bb Bb F Dm Bb C F [Verse] F Bb Well video tapes and ice skates are
Bb F
beautiful things Dm Bb Like a birthday card for johnny and a
C F
pair of angel wings F Bb you were tryna light a fire,
Bb F
And all you wanted was a match Dm Bb But you knew I didn't have one,
C F
So it was odd that you should ask F Bb No it wasn't just the plane crash,
Bb F
That shook you to your core Dm Bb But the very thought of losing her,
C F
That made it all worth dying for [Bridge]
F Bb Bb F I'm Sorry........ Dm Bb C F I'm Sorry........ [Verse]
F Bb We both washed up on that island,
Bb F
All alone without a friend F Bb Thinking you and I were gonna die there,
C F
And that would be the end F Bb But as the weeks turned into months,
Bb F
I saw you overcome your fears Dm Bb And as we became companions,
C F
All those months turned into years F Bb We would talk and talk for hours,
Bb F
You make sure I felt heard Dm Bb Cuz you knew what I was saying,
C F
Though I never sent a word [Chorus]
F Bb Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo.,
Bb F
I'm ready for anything Dm Bb Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, Who knows
C F
what the tide could bring F Bb Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, Yeah,
Bb F
I'm ready for anything Dm Bb Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, Who knows
C F
what the tide will bring
[Verse]
F Bb After fifteen hundred days,
Bb F
You and me escaped to sea F Bb And I knew you still loved the girl,
C F
From memphis,Tennessee F Bb Out there on that lonely ocean,
Bb F
We met a passing humpback whale Dm Bb Cause all the way from Bakersfield,
C F
The tide gave us a sail F Bb And just like that it happened,
Bb F
The waves took me away Dm Bb And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry,
C F
That you lost a friend that day [Chorus]
F Bb Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo,
Bb F
I'm ready for anything Dm Bb Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, Who knows
C F
what the tide could bring F Bb Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, Yeah,
Bb F
I'm ready for anything Dm Bb Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, Who knows
C F
what the tide will bring [Instrumental]
