C*              Em*
I will wait the storm out,
         D*
Wait the tides out,
N.C.
Sit here, stay tied,
    C*             Em*
And I won't be the one you,
       D*
Always run to,
N.C.
You never have to.


[Pre-Chorus]
C
I put it out there, all on the table,
Em
Take it or leave it,
                                 D
But my heart for stable like the moon,
  C
Remember the winter,
C
When we weren't able,
   Em
To move like we used to,
                      D*
But we never changed, no.


[Chorus]
                      C  D
That's the essence of us,
                       Em            D
We're the one thing we don't fuck up,
                      C  D
That's the essence of us,
                   Em            D
Everything else we leave erupts.


[Verse 2]
C             Em
Invest your emotions,
          D
Lose your focus,
D
Drink the potion,
C                Em
And we stay underwater,
          D
Pure as a daughter,
D
We win and we conquer.


[Pre-Chorus]
C
I put it out there, all on the table,
Em
Take it or leave it,
                                 D
But my heart for stable like the moon,
  C
Remember the winter,
C
When we weren't able,
   Em
To move like we used to,
                      D
But we never changed, no.


[Chorus]
                      C  D
That's the essence of us,
                       Em            D
We're the one thing we don't fuck up,
                      C  D
That's the essence of us,
                   Em            D
Everything else we leave erupts.


[Chorus]
                      C  D
That's the essence of us,
                       Em            D
We're the one thing we don't fuck up,
                      C  D
That's the essence of us,
                   Em            D
Everything else we leave erupts.


[Outro]
N.C.   Em        D
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.
