Intro: [play into/verse/chorus riff 2x]
Verse 1: [play into/verse/chorus riff 2x]
Lets-a look at the thresh-hold of the North Sea and my mind
And I'm not to the boredom that drove me here to face the tide
Post-verse: [play Post-Verse riff 4x]
And I swim, I swim, oh swim
Verse 2:
Did the toe in the ocean, oh how it hardens and it numbs
The rest of me is a burgeoned man built to collapse into crumbs
And if I hadn't come now to the coast to disappear
I may have died in a landslide of rocks and hopes and fears
