Key: C
Introduction: C
C Am
We were married by the ocean
C Am
We were tethered by the sea
F G Am
We tied strings around our fingers
F G
To remember our ideals
C Am
I'll be brave when you are frightened
C Am
You'll be strong when I am weak in the knees
F G Am
I'll be calm when you have had enough of these rushing waves
F G
You'll be the oxygen I need
F
We'll take turns to untangle the knots
Though our hands may be tied
C
It's all part of the plot
G F
Cat's cradle etiquette, we oblige
C G
As we learn to unlace for the rest of our lives
C
The rest of our lives
C Am
You'll be balance when I waver
C Am
I'll be warmth when you are shivering cold
F G Am
You'll be patience when I've had enough of this waiting game
F G
I'll be the anchor cast below
Chorus
