However Many Takes it Takes by Vandaveer
We're sEbwimming in the deep end
   Eb/D  
I find out where your faith begins
You're Cwaiting for an answer that's Bbacceptable
The Abcurrent sweeps you out to sea
And it kBbeeps you guessing helplessly
                    Eb  Eb/        D              C  Bb  
You're praying for a savior who's exceptional
SomeAbone who'll lift you from your knees
And sBbave you, and hand you the keys
                 Eb  Eb/            D         C  Bb  
And offer you the kingdom of your dreams
But nothing's ever as it seems
You find yourself further down stream
Alone, save for the echoes of your screams
Ah, hAboney, fairy tBbales are prone to tEbease
[ Ebchord in background, but bass goes:  C   D    Eb   F   G    Ab   G   F  Eb]
Well Ebcandles burn you warm and safe
     Eb/D  
You lock your door and control your space
And cCurtains drawn, you think that you're impBbenetrable
But demons they don't live outside
They burrow deep where they can hide
Inside a safe, you will still feel vulnerable
You draw a bath and pour some wine
You drink yourself into another time
Where you feel truly free
The water's rising overhead
And you wake to find yourself in bed
You're gasping, for a breath that's hard to breathe
Ahh, honey, dreams are rarely what they seem
Oh, how, e-ver, many takes, it takes
Well, Ebstep outside into the sun
Eb/D  
Let it dry your eyes and run around
Feel the wCarmth underneath your skBbin
The clouds will soon move in again
You can't expect to always win
You got to, take it as it comes
The marching bands and beating drums
Play familiar songs for the alum
We all got scars, but we don't like to show them
Sometimes it's better to be strong
We all got to be moving on
You got to walk a million miles
Ahh, honey, go walk them with a smile.
Oh, how, ever, many takes, it takes.

However Many Takes it Takes by Vandaveer

We're swimming in the deep end

Eb D

I find out where your faith begins

C Bb

You're waiting for an answer that's acceptable

The current sweeps you out to sea

And it keeps you guessing helplessly

Eb Eb D C Bb

You're praying for a savior who's exceptional

Someone who'll lift you from your knees

And save you, and hand you the keys

Eb Eb D C Bb

And offer you the kingdom of your dreams

But nothing's ever as it seems

You find yourself further down stream

Alone, save for the echoes of your screams

Ab Bb Eb

Ah, honey, fairy tales are prone to tease

Eb C D Eb F G Ab G F Eb

[ chord in background, but bass goes: ]

Well candles burn you warm and safe

Eb D

You lock your door and control your space

C Bb

And curtains drawn, you think that you're impenetrable

But demons they don't live outside

They burrow deep where they can hide

Inside a safe, you will still feel vulnerable

You draw a bath and pour some wine

You drink yourself into another time

Where you feel truly free

The water's rising overhead

And you wake to find yourself in bed

You're gasping, for a breath that's hard to breathe

Ahh, honey, dreams are rarely what they seem

Oh, how, e-ver, many takes, it takes

Well, step outside into the sun

Eb D

Let it dry your eyes and run around

C Bb

Feel the warmth underneath your skin

The clouds will soon move in again

You can't expect to always win

You got to, take it as it comes

The marching bands and beating drums

Play familiar songs for the alum

We all got scars, but we don't like to show them

Sometimes it's better to be strong

We all got to be moving on

You got to walk a million miles

Ahh, honey, go walk them with a smile.

Oh, how, ever, many takes, it takes.
