[Intro]
E B C#m A
[Verse 1]
E B
Looting the destroyed
C#m
Vessels of the sea
A
I wondered if the waves
E
Had taken all of me
B
All of me back
C#m
Down to the black
A
Down to where the worms reign silent and green
E B C#m A
Silent
[Chorus]
E B
We can do some wrecking here
C#m
'Til a little color
A
Comes into your face
E B
We can do some wrecking here
C#m
And find something to love
A
In this broken place
B
This broken place
[Verse 2]
E B C#m
And the king is a hand
A
And slaps you like a wave
E B C#m
And shackles you down
B
Bound like an anchored chain in the sand
C#m
Sends your ships to the rocks
A
Sends the keys to the lock of the chain
A
On your heart
To the mouth of a serpent
E B C#m
And his scaly glass shards
B
He's holding all the cards
B
And waiting in the waves
C#m
With the poker face
C#m
And no trail to trace
B A
No trail to trace
[Chorus]
E B
We can do some wrecking here
C#m
'Til a little color
A
Comes into your face
E B
We can do some wrecking here
C#m
And find something to love
A
In this broken place
B
This broken place
E B C#m A
