Dm C F Gm A  Dm C F A
Dm A  Dm F   Dm A Gm  A Gm A
Dm     C             F
In the winter it was so, so cold
     Gm                 A
The fish all died, the harbour froze
      Dm          C             F               A
There was nothing left for the crows to do but wait
     Gm  Bb    A
And they said....
           Dm
They said being here is better than wishing we'd stayed
      A
Yes, being here is seeming to be the way
    Dm             F          Bb           A
Oh being here is better than wishing we had stayed...
Dm A  Dm F   Dm Bbm  Gm A  Gm A
      Dm          C          F
They stayed under water for so,so long
      Gm                        A
They wait for the spring when the ice will thaw
     Dm     C              F
And frozen parts will be filled with song
        Gm            F           A
And the sun filtered down through all them waves
     Gm      A
And they said...
           Dm
They said being here is better than wishing we'd stayed
      A
Yes, being here is seeming to be the way
  Dm               F         Bb
Being here is like breathing on the hottest day
    Gm         A
I think I would rather suffocate
Gm A  Gm A
      Dm          C          F
Last summer they said it was so, so hot
     Gm          F         A
Two lovers did drown, their dreams were sunk
            Dm           C            F
While their bodies were lost, their souls stayed around
         Gm                 A
They stayed underwater; most go underground.
     Gm       A
And they said...
          Dm
They said being here is better than wishing we'd stayed
      A
Yes, being here is seeming to be the way (x3)
     Dm            F            Bb                         A
Oh, being here is better than wishing, wishing, wishing we had stayed
