[Verse 1]
D5
   You live in a world I cannot believe
D5
   You create a world I don't want to see
         Bb                                         D5    Dm
And your forest's a stand of dead trees lost in the night
 
D5
   Did you ever think you'd live down the past?
D5
   You just wanna tie yourself to the mast
         Bb                                                   D5   Dm
All your nightmares have come t'you at last, at least in your mind
 
 
[Chorus 1]
F        C       Dm      Bb
Learn to swim in rushing rivers
F        C      Dm
Breaking on the shore
F         C          Dm     Bb
Make your peace with broken streets
     F           C           D5    Dm
Your face turned towards the storm
D5   Dm
 
 
[Verse 2]
D5
   Your hollow accusations no one ever hears
D5
   Your wounded sense of pride, a guilty souvenir
         Bb                                    D5   Dm
All your protests and vacant excuses ring insincere
 
D5
   I just want to find a car to overturn
D5
   I just want to light a fire to watch it burn
          F                                         D5   Dm
Now we're past the point of no return and no one is here
 
 
[Chorus 2]
F        C       Dm      Bb
Learn to swim in rushing rivers
F        C      Dm
Breaking on the shore
F         C          Dm     Bb
Make your peace with broken streets
     F           C           D5    Dm
Your face turned towards the storm
D5   Dm
D5   Dm
D5   Dm

You are afraid
Uneducated on where this would lead
Going on for far too long
We are sorry for the greed
Leave us in pieces and places
War torn and wronged
 
Dm   C         Bb
In between whispers and screams 
    Dm   C      Bb
You permeate my soul
Dm     C          Bb
Lost between nightmares and dreams 
    Dm  C         Bb
You decimate this home
 
 
[Chorus 3]
F        C       Dm      Bb
Learn to swim in rushing rivers
F        C      Dm
Breaking on the shore
F         C          Dm     Bb
Make your peace with broken streets
     F           C           D5    Dm
Your face turned towards the storm
D5   Dm
D5   Dm
D5   Dm   D5
