[Intro]

E E E+ C#m/E

[Verse]

E E E+ C#m/E

Looking out across the coast

E E E+ C#m/E

Can't find the divide

E E E+ C#m/E

Maybe the ocean is a ghost

E E E+ C#m/E

Living in the horizon

[Chorus]

E E

And my heart beats fast

E+ C#m/E

As I count the miles

E E E+ C#m/E

From the city lines

E E

No I'm not running

E+ C#m/E E E E E E

I'm just stealing time

If I don't go

How will I ever know

Em D A

What's on the other side

C Am

I can't tell the wheel from the road

Em D A

Or the sea from the sky

A A

I gotta find, I gotta find

Find the divide

[Verse]

E E E+ C#m/E

I drove a lonely distance

E E E+ C#m/E

Til the road turned to fire

The night smoothing in around me

E E E+ C#m/E

But I'm not tired

[Chorus]

E7 E

And my heart beats fast

E+ C#m/E E E E+ C#m/E

Shadows win the fight against the heat, oh

E E

The Lines are blurring

And I can't tell the lion from the beast

If I don't go

How will I ever know

Em D A

What's on the other side

I can't tell the wheel from the road

Em D A

Or the sea from the sky

A A

I gotta find, I gotta find

Find the divide

[Solo]

[Chorus]

If I don't go

How will I ever know
