Through Me The Flood Chords by Hozier

[Intro]
 
Em C Em B
 
C Em C Em
 
[Verse 1]
Em
Picture a man
Em
Seen like a spec out from the shore
          C
Swimming out beyond the breakers
           Em
Like he's done his life before
           D            B
He feels a coming of a squall
              C              Em
Will drag him out a greater length
         C           
But knows his strength, 
             Em
and tries to gather it
 
 
[Verse 2]
Em
And he swims on
Em
Turning back to shore again
           C
Above the outer atmosphere
      Em
Of a world he's never seen
             D               B
And looking down to his new home
           C             Em   
He feels the rising of a wave 
             C
and knows at once
             Em                  D    B
He will not weather it like that man
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
B       C              Em     
I lookеd down into the depths 
     C
when I mеt you
C
I couldn't measure it
 
 
[Chorus]
  G
Anytime I'd struggled on
              C             Em
Against the course out on my own
       D  B               C 
Every time I'd burn through 
          Em
the world, I'd see
         B           D       Em
That the world, it burns through me
Em
But when I (I), I'd let go (I'd let go)
               C
My struggling form (My struggling form)
   Em
My willing soul (I'd see)
 D        B
Every time (Each time)
              C               Em
Would flow through the world, I'd see
B        D
That the world (The world)
Em
It flows through me (It flows through me)
   B         D                Em
That the world, it flows through me
 
[Instrumental Break]
 
Em C D Em D B C Em D Em
 
[Verse 2]
Em
Picture a grave
Em
Picture six feet freshly dug
      C
The sharp temporary walls
              Em
At the long-term cliff edge 

of the world
        D                 B
Light and air find some new deepness there
     C             Em
And usher down the sky
      Em     Cmaj7           
Where one stands by and tries 
  Em
to make sense of it
 
 
[Verse 3]
Em
But try measure loss
Em
Measure the silence of a house
       C
The unheard footsteps at the doorway
          Em
The unemployment of the mouth
          D              B
The waking up, having forgotten
         C              Em         C
And remembering again the full extent
       Em
Of what forever is
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
           D    B
With each grave
          C                     Em       C
I think of loss and I can only think of you
             Em
And I couldn't measure it
 
 
[Chorus]
 G
Anytime I've struggled on 
(Struggled on)
                C
Against the course (Against the course)
Em
Out on my own (I'd see)
   D             B
Every time (Each time)
                 C           Em
I'd burn through the world, I'd see
           B
That the world (The world)
D             Em
It burns through me (Burns through me)
Em
But when I (I), I'd let go (I'd let go)
               C
My struggling form (My struggling form)
D         Em
My willing soul (I'd see)
       D       B
Every time (Each time)
              C                  Em
Would flow through the world, I'd see
          B
That the world (The world)
D              Em
It flows through me (It flows through me)
         B     D         Em
That the world, it flows through me
