INTRO:  E  Esus*  E  Esus

E
when you come across the sea
 D(9)*
me like a beacon guiding you to safety

the sooner the better now
E
and when you come the hills

will breathe like a baby
 D(9)
pulled up heaving from the bottom of the ocean

the sooner the better now
E
when you come to cover me with your kisses
 D(9)
fresh like a daisy chained up in a lion's den
E
I'll know you by the thunderclap
 D(9)
pouring like a rain of blood to my emotions

 C#m
and that is why
 B             E
I stumble to my knees
 B         A
and why underneath the heavens
 B            A
with the stars burning and exploding
 B            A       G
I know I could never let you down
 E
when you come

E
when you come like an iceberg float in darkness
 D(9)
smashing my hull send me to the bottom of the sea

I should know you better now
E
when you come your majesty to entrap me
 D(9)
prince of light receding

the sooner the better now
E
and when you come to cover me
 D(9)
with your kisses hard like armour

the sooner the better now
E              A   B   E
I'll know you by

the thunderclap
 D(9)
pouring like a rain of blood to my emotions

and that is why
I stumble to my knees
and why underneath the heavens
with the stars burning and exploding
I know I could never let you down

E          D(9)
she came out of the water
 E
into my horizon
 D(9)
like a cumulo nimbus
 E
coming in from a distance
 D(9)
burning and exploding
 E
burning and exploding
 D(9)
like a slow volcano
 E        D(9)  [etc. ... ]
when you come
cover the ground with ashes
when you come
