Biography:
Having spent nearly two years on the road touring in support of 88 Keys and Counting,
The end of 2008 saw Grieves enlisting the help of friend and collaborator Budo to co-produce Together/Apart bringing his signature swiss-army knife, multi-instrumental backdrop to Grieves' hauntingly poignant narrative. The album began taking shape in New York as the two built off the success 88 Keys and Counting had generated and paired it with the intensity they developed from their live performances.

Verse:
Am
And in come the strings
C
Playing my patience like a note that I never had the guts to sing
Em
I've been living with your lies
Cause my life don't feel quite right unless I'm swelling from the honeybee sting
Am
And look at what you bring me, girl
C Em
Nothing but drama, holding on strong to making me feel you-r woes
How long can we go until we're nothing but a pile of bones?
Am
Stand tall in the cold, right?
You tell me that it's over
C
And show me what it's like to have a stomach full of sulfur
Em
And loving you has taught me to keep a hand on the holster
In case I gotta shoot a couple holes
Am
But what the hell do I know, huh
C
Yeah, I don't know shit unless I'm hanging off the curve of your lips
Em
I've been looking for an angel like you since the devil in me
Made it obvious it doesn't exist
Chorus:
Am C
How, how will I figure this out?
Em
Undertow dragging you down
Beneath my comfort zone
Where that love I gave you drowned
Am
I'm freaking out
C
Speaking with your name in my mouth
Em
And I don't wanna live without you
I just want to clear your clouds
Am C Em
Away, away, away
Verse:
Am
I'm into the fake smiles
Walking 'round like a stray child
C
Trying to find a quiet place to sleep
Em
I don't know if you can feel it in the air when you step into the street
But I've been finding it a little hard to breathe
Am
And look at what you brought me, girl
Nothing but pain
C Em
Spending my money for a walk in the rain, I'm drained
And never wanted this to be the outcome
When I can never trust you and all I get is "how come?"
Am
Why, after everything I gave you
C
You can share it with a stranger every time I went away
Em
I've been lied to before girl
I see it in your face that you don't care about the broken heart I taste
Am
But what the hell do I know?
C
I know the world will go blind if I open up the cage of my mind
Em
I've been running from an angel like you
Since the devil in me showed me heaven's not a bottom bottom line
Chorus:
Am C
How, how will I figure this out?
Em
Undertow dragging you down
Beneath my comfort zone
Where that love I gave you drowned
Am
I'm freaking out
C
Speaking with your name in my mouth
Em
And I don't wanna live without you
I just want to clear your clouds
Am C Em
Away, away, away (x3)
Am C
How, how will I figure this out?
Em
Undertow dragging you down
Beneath my comfort zone
Where that love I gave you drowned
Am
I'm freaking out
C
Speaking with your name in my mouth
Em
And I don't wanna live without you
I just want to clear your clouds
Am C Em
Away, away, away
