[Intro] 
Dm Am G
[Verse 1]
AmA greater darkness for all its worth
AmA friend so young whose life was cut
We drink the rFain to clear our throats
We drink the Gpoison - we drink the Empoison - to make it Amgo
[Verse 2]
AmThe little mercies above all things
AmNo final act, no final scene
A friend for Flife and in death too
Forever sGtrong, forever hEmold, inside our Dmsoul
[Chorus]
DmSo raise your hands above the Amwaters
We are the thieves in giant Dmshoulders
So raise your hands, our hearts sink Amlower
To watch you Gdrown inside the Dmmonster
DmSo raise your hands above the Amwaters
We are the thieves in giant Dmshoulders
DmSo raise your hands...
AmSo raise your Emhands above the Amwaters
[Verse 3]
AmThe day now ends and all within
AmA greater darkness covers everything
Is there no Fend for such a pain?
Is there no Ghope, no other Emlife, no way to Dmknow?
[Chorus]
DmSo raise your hands above the Amwaters
We are the thieves in giant Dmshoulders
So raise your hands, our hearts sink Amlower
To watch you Gdrown inside the Dmmonster

A greater darkness for all its worth

A friend so young whose life was cut

We drink the rain to clear our throats

G Em Am

We drink the poison - we drink the poison - to make it go

[Verse 2]

The little mercies above all things

No final act, no final scene

A friend for life and in death too

G Em Dm

Forever strong, forever hold, inside our soul

[Chorus]

Dm Am

So raise your hands above the waters

We are the thieves in giant shoulders

So raise your hands, our hearts sink lower

G Dm

To watch you drown inside the monster

Dm Am

So raise your hands above the waters

We are the thieves in giant shoulders

So raise your hands...

Am Em Am

So raise your hands above the waters

[Verse 3]

The day now ends and all within

A greater darkness covers everything

Is there no end for such a pain?

G Em Dm

Is there no hope, no other life, no way to know?

[Chorus]

So raise your hands above the waters

We are the thieves in giant shoulders

So raise your hands, our hearts sink lower

G Dm

To watch you drown inside the monster
