[Verse 1]
DmWake up
A spinning wheel seems to Fnavigate
DmBroke free
And stole a ship that took me Fout to sea
[Pre-Chorus]
But I started sinking like a Gmstone
And my oceans turn to DmcoldC  
In the whirling pool that Gmgrows
I feel my cDmolors start to blend with the Cshore
[Chorus]
My yellBbows Cturn to DmgoldC  
YellBbows Cturn to DmgoldC  
[Verse 2]
DmSave me
All these tidal waves wont Flet me be
DmSo I breathe deep
And dive to find myself some Fdistant peace
[Pre-Chorus]
Because when I'm sinking like a Gmstone
And my oceans turn to DmcoldC  
Into this whirling pool I Gmgo
To feel my Dmcolors start to blend with the Cshore
[Chorus]
Where yelloBbws tCurn to DmgoldC  
YellBbows Cturn to DmgoldC  
YellBbows Cturn to DmgoldC  
YellBbows Cturn to DmgoldC  
[Bridge]
So Dmtake me back to Fwhen we used to run with the Csun,
way back when Gmwe were wild
DmTake me back we'll Ffind our island lost in the Csea,
way back when Gmdays were wild

Wake up

A spinning wheel seems to navigate

Broke free

And stole a ship that took me out to sea

And my oceans turn to cold

In the whirling pool that grows

I feel my colors start to blend with the shore

[Chorus]

My yellows turn to gold

Yellows turn to gold

[Verse 2]

Save me

All these tidal waves wont let me be

So I breathe deep

And dive to find myself some distant peace

Because when I'm sinking like a stone

And my oceans turn to cold

Into this whirling pool I go

To feel my colors start to blend with the shore

way back when we were wild
