Wrightsville Beach Acoustic

{tuning: Standard (EADGBE)}
[E]Paint a picture as we're [B]walking on the [C#m]street
a collage of paint, [A]cement,
and steam.[E] Just like Deja Vu, [B]still life in a [C#m]dream.
There you stood watching   [A]
                           [E]    *** {[B], [C#m], [E]}
as the rain poured down on me.

[E]We were once a canvas[B], so bright and full of [C#m]color.
 Now [A]we've become Dorian
[E]Grey where the frame is bent and [B]cracked.
I am too, in fact I've [C#]been [Abm]that
[A]way [E]since [B]May.

(Chorus)

Let the [E]waves [E]crash [B]down.
{sot}[C#m]They'll swallow a[A]ll of us and [E]wash [E]a-[B]way,    [A]
                               [E]  [B]  [C#m]
these memories we tried to s-------------ave.{eot}
[E]Was it e[B]nough to be [A]brave?  [B]    [C#m]        [E]

(Verse 2)

[E]How did we get so damn [B]far by ig[C#m]noring every[A]thing?
[E]    You we're the sand beneath
my feet[B], eroded by the tide.
It's [C#m]too [Ab]hard [A]to [E]bel[B]ieve.

[E], [A], [C#m], [A]    X2

[E]All I ever wanted was a cool, dry [A]place to rest my bones. Not to [C#m]drift along
with this current forever, not [A]have to sink alone.
