[Intro]

A F#m C#m E

[Verse 1]

A F#m C#m E

When I look down, I was a mess

A F#m C#m E

My face was smeared, my clothes were wet

A F#m C#m E

My shoes untied, stone in my chest

A F#m C#m E

I washed upon the shore again

[Chorus]

C#m E A F#m

Reach out, touch me, I'm stuck on the edge

C#m E A F#m

Reach out, darkness is winning again

C#m E A F#m

Reach out and see me, I'm losing my head

C#m E A F#m

Reach out, I can't fight without you, my friend

[Verse 2]

A F#m C#m E

When my feet touched onto land

A F#m C#m E

The sweet relief, the hot, dry sand

A F#m C#m E

With one short breath, my chest expands

A F#m C#m E

My body is my own again

[Chorus]

C#m E A F#m

Reach out, touch me, I'm stuck on the edge

C#m E A F#m

Reach out, darkness is winning again

C#m E A F#m

Reach out and see me, I'm losing my head

C#m E A F#m

Reach out, I can't fight without you, my friend
