Standard (EADGBE)

Pardon me my mistake

Thought it might turn for a break

But since the rain loves my face

i'll let it be

Long since i gave up on long walks

To make up for long talks

Cause lately the silence wont stop talking to me

Chorus

(And/Cause) Im getting weary waiting for

the harbor lights to change

ive forgotten what i do it for

but i tread water just the same

i tread water .... i tread water

Thought ive earned my fair share

heard the devil may care

but i called him up he's not there

what does that mean?

(repeat chorus)

Bridge

Thought that life would lead far from beauty's beast

well i know at least you cant count me out

cause im used to the water now

(repeat 1st 4 lines of chorus)

Coda

and i'll never let this pair of hands forget to pull their weights

it's burdened maybe more than i would like to bear but less than i can take

and ill tread water

tread water tread water tread water fade...
