I'm a Dbundle of fears
GI'm a pile of doubts
But hoDpe through the fear
              Ga,
And I pray it all works outo|
           A.i
And it always does
When it Grains someAtimes it floods
REPEAT INTRO (half)
I'm a Dshot in the dark
GI'm a fist in the gut
I might Ddo something crazy
To get myseGlf out of a rut
                A.i
When push comes down to shove
When it Grains someAtimes it floods  D  
CHORUS
                  A.i
Let the dam break down
                   Ga,
Let the water wash over me
               A.i
I don't care if I drown
If that's how it Bmhas to be
GLet the Awater wash Dover me
REPEAT INTRO
I've beDen out on the edge
And right bGack to the middle
All points Din between
Of my oGwn personal riddle
            A.i
The answers slowly come
When it Grains someAtimes it floods
REPEAT INTRO (half)
It Dall gets lost
              Ga,
No matter how hard you try
Everything Dcomes with a cost
              Ga,
There ain't no way to slide
                A.i
The illusion is clear as mud
When it Grains sometAimes it floods  D  
REPEAT CHORUS 2X
REPEAT INTRO (through all the "let the water take me higher's", to the end)

Chords in this song · guitar

I'm a bundle of fears

I'm a pile of doubts

But hope through the fear

Ga,

And I pray it all works outo|

And it always does

G A

When it rains sometimes it floods

REPEAT INTRO (half)

I'm a shot in the dark

I'm a fist in the gut

I might do something crazy

To get myself out of a rut

When push comes down to shove

G A D

When it rains sometimes it floods

CHORUS

Let the dam break down

Ga,

Let the water wash over me

I don't care if I drown

If that's how it has to be

G A D

Let the water wash over me

REPEAT INTRO

I've been out on the edge

And right back to the middle

All points in between

Of my own personal riddle

The answers slowly come

G A

When it rains sometimes it floods

REPEAT INTRO (half)

It all gets lost

Ga,

No matter how hard you try

Everything comes with a cost

Ga,

There ain't no way to slide

The illusion is clear as mud

G A D

When it rains sometimes it floods

REPEAT CHORUS 2X

REPEAT INTRO (through all the "let the water take me higher's", to the end)
