Verse 2:
E5 F#m7
I could tell you of a man not so tall
B/D# E5
Who said life's a circus and so we are small

Tell you of a girl that I saw
B/D# E5
I froze in the moment and she changed it all
C#9 E B9
And I'm drying out Crying out
A9 C#9
This isn't how I go
E B9
Hurry now Lay me down
A9 B9 C#9 A9 E
And let these waters flow...ohhh..oohh..ooooh
B9 C#9 A/F# A9
Flow...ohhh..oohh..ooooh

Verse 3:
E5 F#m7
And you keep the air in my lungs
B/D# E5
Floating along as a melody comes
E5 F#m7
And my heart beats like timpani drums
B/D# E5
Keeping the time while a symphony strums
C#9 E B9
And I'm drying out Crying out
A9 C#9
This isn't how I go
E B9
Hurry now Lay me down
A9 B9 C#9 A9 E
And let these waters flow...ohhh..oohh..ooooh
B9 C#9 A/F# A9
Flow...ohhh..oohh..ooooh
B9 C#9 A9 E
Let it flow...ohhh..oohh..ooooh

Let it flow...ohhh..oohh..ooooh
