                F          D
Follow your heart to the water
Am                     C
Fill your pockets with stone
F          D           Am
Throw your arms around me
C
Never let me go

Em                  Am
You were the first, you wouldn't be the last
Em                   Am
What the river took, we could never replace
F                      D
And as the pain set in so did the realisation
Am                    C
You were never coming home
F             D
For nights we lay awake
Am                   C
Wishing for answers, hoping against all hope
F                  D
And if love could change the course of fate
Am            C
These nights, we move mountains
F                        D              Am
But as the news filtered down the line, the impact shook us
C
Shook us to the core
F           D                Am         C
Loss struck like a dagger in our aching hearts

                F          D
So follow your heart to the water
Am                     C
Fill your pockets with stone
F          D           Am
Throw your arms around me
C
Never let me go

Am                         Em
It's not the years in your life,
Am                         Em
It's not the years in your life,
Am                         F
It's not the years in your life,
D                     C
it's the life in your years
F         D
Old soul, so it's said
Am                     C
The day we lost is the day I found regret
F                 D
Not in the waters that embraced you
Am                   C
But in the wake your absence left
Am C         G
   Sink into me
Am C         G
   Sink into me

Hold out your hands, I'll take you away

Hold out your hands, sink into me

Hold out your hands, surrender the weight of this world
