Am
Crawling under a calloused sun

I fear the ghost you could become
 F
So I called upon the clouds
                          E
Raindrops dance as they hit the ground


[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Higher than the vultures fly
                                     F
Deeper than the blue in the desert sky

The oasis in the sands
                          G         Dm
Bringing life to the barren lands
                  G
We are waterborne
                  Dm
We are waterborne


[Chorus]
  Am                         F     Dm
You were my, you were my lifeline
  Am
The blood that runs in my veins
   F                  G
Without you, everything fades away
  Am                       F       Dm
You were my, you were my lifeline
  Am
The blood that runs in my veins
     F                      G
Without you, everything fades away


[Verse 2]
  Am
The river now changes course

Timeless reflections of life distort
 F
A generation caught upstream

I don't need you
      E
But you need me


[Pre-Chorus]
  Am
Higher than the vultures fly

Deeper than the blue in the desert sky
  F
The oasis in the sands
                        G         Dm
Bringing life to the barren lands
                  G
We are waterborne
                 Dm
We are waterborne


[Chorus]
  Am                         F     Dm
You were my, you were my lifeline
   Am
The blood that runs in my veins
     F                 G
Without you, everything fades away
     Am                       F     Dm
You were my, you were my lifeline
     Am
The blood that runs in my veins
      F                 G
Without you, everything fades away


[Breakdown]   Am Listen For Picking Patterns
   Am
Nowhere to go when the well runs dry?
   Am
Nowhere to run when the waters rise


[Chorus]
                           F      Dm
You were my, you were my lifeline
  Am
The blood that runs in my veins
     F                   G
Without you, everything fades away
   Am                      F       Dm
You were my, you were my lifeline
     Am
The blood that runs in my veins
     F                   G
Without you, everything fades away
     Am
The blood that runs in my veins
     F                   G
Without you, everything fades away
