[INTRO]
Am G/B Csus4 | C | Dm Em F | |
Am G/B Csus4 | C | Dm Em F | |


[VERSE 1]
                Am    G/B Csus4 C
It never was an option
                 Dm   Em F
for me to not go there
                      Am   G/B Csus4 C
I’m frightened of the ocean,
                      Dm   Em F
but still I’m setting sails


[VERSE 2]
Am      G/B  Csus4  C
Playing with fi  -  re
Dm     Em F
lights up my way
Am   G/B Csus4 C
Take my  sha - dow,
Dm    Em       F
be my break of day


[PD-C HORUS]
Am  G/B   Csus4 C
Oh, these voi - ces
Dm   Em F
stay in my head
Am   G/B Csus4 C
Hold me  clo - ser,
Dm    Em       F  F
be my break of day


[CHORUS 1]
n.c.              Am G/B Csus4 C Dm Em7 F
    Until I fade away
                  Am G/B Csus4 C Dm Em7 F
    Until I fade away


[VERSE 3] - more electronic, so fewer chords
                 Am      G
And if I were to tell you
                     Em   F
That life was just a game
                    Am     G
Would you be making changes
                      Em   F
Or would you stay the same?


[PD-C HORUS]
Am  G/B   Csus4 C
Oh, these voi - ces
Dm   Em F
stay in my head
Am   G/B Csus4 C
Hold me  clo - ser,
Dm    Em       F
be my break of day

                    Am G/B Csus4 C              Dm Em7 F

[VERSE 4]
                Am    G/B Csus4 C
It never was an option

For me to not go there
                      Am      G/B Csus4 C
I’m frightened of the o - cean
