In Shallow Seas We Sail Chords & Lyrics by Emery
In Shallow Seas We Sail
guitar chords lyrics
This is one of my favorite songs and it wasn't on here so I went ahead and transcribed
A really interesting fact worth noting is that this song is in standard tuning while most
their other songs are a half-step down.

Ships don't sink if they have wind in their sails
C#5 F5 D#5 C#5
But if the wind fails is there hope for me (I guess your love, was only as safe..)
C5 A#5 C5
I thought your love was safe as promise you made(..as the promise you made...)
C#5 A#5
Now I am drowning in your shallow sea; I swim
(you are the storm, the wind and the waves, you break me in two and toss me away)
F5 D#5 C#5
You are the waves that toss me in.
(I fell apart when I fell for you)
C#5 A#5
How can I float above the water that fills my lungs?
(you are the water filing my lungs, killing me softly without a word)
F5 D#5 C#5
Killing me softly without a word.
(Without a word)
