Anchor

[Verse]
C                    Dm      C
We stayed afloat for just a while
                   Dm     Bb
We dared to swim alone
                     Dm       C
Dark water left your sinking heart to drown
C                    Dm       C
I know it's much too late to try
                     Dm    Bb
You're never coming home
                          Dm       C
When the tide came in you left without a sound


[Pre-Chorus]
         C         Dm        C
We don't say, what we should say
Dm      Bb                       Dm    C
We get lost beyond the answer we find loneliness
   C          Dm      C
We pretend but in the end
Dm      Bb                       Dm    C
We get lost beyond the answer we find loneliness


[Chorus]
  Bb
I never thought to hold you
  F                                     C
I never thought that you might need an anchor
  Bb
I never thought I'd lose you
  F                                     C
I never thought that you might need an anchor


[Verse]
C                     Dm    C
I've seen your face so many times
                         Dm   Bb
You've stood in front of me
                           Dm     C
It was all so real, it was all so hard to see
C                     Dm    C
I'm chasing ghosts and alibis
                 Dm    Bb
Who speak so quietly
                      Dm
I can almost hear you say
      C
Don't cry for me


[Pre-Chorus]
         C         Dm        C
We don't say, what we should say
Dm      Bb                       Dm    C
We get lost beyond the answer we find loneliness
   C          Dm      C
We pretend but in the end
Dm      Bb                       Dm    C
We get lost beyond the answer we find loneliness


[Chorus]
  Bb
I never thought to hold you
  F                                    C
I never thought that you might need an anchor
  Bb
I never thought I'd lose you
  F                                    C
I never thought that you might need an anchor


[Bridge]
Gm
Now this is all on me
Bb
Take my apology
Dm                       F
I never thought it would end like it did here
Gm
Now this is all on me
Bb
Take my apology
     C
It's all on me
        C
This is all on me


[Chorus]
  Bb
I never thought to hold you
  F                                    C
I never thought that you might need an anchor
  Bb
I never thought I'd lose you
  F                                    C
I never thought that you might need an anchor
