Em (4)
Back to the water, back to the sand
Em (4)
Back to the heart of where we began

Break it down to the truth laid bare

Till there's no defenses, no walls to hide us
Em (2) Dsus2 (1) Em (1)
Till the stones that we built them of turn to gravel and dust

Till the stones that we built them of turn to gravel and dust
