High tide, summer in the city
Am E7
The kids are looking pretty
Dm
But isn't it a pity
Am E7 Am E7
That the sunshine is followed by thunder
Am E7
And thoughts of going under
Dm F7
And is it any wonder
C E
When the sea calling out to me
Am Am/G F
I seem to spend my whole life running
C
From people who would be
E
The death of you and me
Am Am/G
'Cause I can feel the storm clouds
F Fm
Sucking up my soul
Am E7 Am E7
High tide, life is getting faster
Am E7
No one has the answer

I try to face the day now in a new way
Am E7
The bottom of the bottom
Am E7
'Cause every man's a puzzle
Dm F7 C
Let's run away together you and me
E
Forever we'd be free
Am Am/G F
Free to spend our whole lives running
C
From people who would be

The death of you and me
Am Am/G
'Cause I can feel the storm clouds
F Fm
Sucking up my soul
C
Let's run away to sea
E
Forever we'd be free
Am Am/G F
Free to spend our whole lives running
C
From people who would be
E
The death of you and me

'Cause I can feel the storm clouds coming
C
I'm watching my TV
E
Or is it watching me?

I see another new day dawning
C E
It's rising over me, with my mortality
Am Am/G
And I can feel the storm clouds
F Fm
Sucking up my soul
