Tuning: Standard

Might seem difficult at first, but the picking pattern is basically the same through the 
whole song, it just takes a while to get into your fingers.

Gone too far

(Repeat the last 3 bars 3 more times)

We listened to song birds and rush hour cars
And welcomed in the
Day

You say London in summer time is great, on
Days like this I feel like
I can escape

From things that I've done and mistakes that I've made, I could
Wash it all
Away

We bathed like swimmers in the morning sun
Waiting for our night to end
It felt like one of us would come down hard

And one of us, would start again

(Repeat intro)

Verse2: (same as verse 1)

It started out curious, it started out fun
We smoked in the woods
When we were young

And secretly slipped something under our tongue as we
Danced the night
Away

But everyone stumbles on old cocaine
It burns out the best and it
Burdens the brain

Till brown comes and whisks away your pain
And you found you've lost
Your way

(Repeat end of verse)
We bathed like swimmers in the morning sun
Waiting for our night to end
It felt like one of us would come down hard

And one of us, would start again

(Repeat intro)

You'd sink in the river* for your death*
Swallow forever* till nothings left*
Sleep with the fishes* and draw no breath*
Take no rest*
(Thought it might be helpful to some to put stars where you change for the chorus)

We're all waiting

(Repeat last 4 bars)
Just cast your eyes, down to the floor, you'll see us here, we're all waiting

Chorus (Same as before):
Don't sink in the river for your death
You can start fresh tomorrow, leave what's left
You could sleep in the shade, draw some breath
Please draw breath, please draw breath
