Sirens

Hear the (Ebsus2)sirens,

(Cm)Hear the (Csus)sirens.

(Eb)Hear the (Ebsus2)sirens,

(Eb)hear the (Ebsus2)circus so profound.

(Csus)I (Eb)sound hear the (Ebsus2)sirens (Eb)more and (Ebsus2)more in this here town.

(Csus)Let me (Bb)catch my breath to breathe (F)and reach (Eb)across the (Gm7)bed.

(Bb)Just to know we're safe, I (F)am a grateful (Cm)man.

The (Bb)slightest bit of light (F)and I (Eb)can see you (Gm7)clear.

Oh, (Cm)have to take your hand and (Eb)feel your breath,

(Bb)for fear think this (Fm7)someday will be over.

(Cm)I pull you close, so much to lose,

(Bb)knowing that nothing (Fm7)lasts ver forever.

(Ab)I didn't care

before you were here.

(Bb)I danced in laughter with the ever after.

(Ab)But all y things change,

let this remain.

(Eb)Hear the (Ebsus2)(Eb)sirens cov'ring (Ebsus2)distance in the night.

(Csus)The (Eb)sound (Ebsus2)echoin' (Eb)er.

Will they (Ebsus2)come for me next time?

(Csus)Oh, me (Bb)ev'ry choice, mistake (F)I've made,

(Eb)it's not my (Gm7)plan (Bb)to send you in the arms (F)of another (Cm)man.

And (Bb)if you choose to stay,

(F)I'll wait, (Eb)I'll (Gm7)understand.

Oh, (Cm)it's a fragile thing,

this (Eb)life we lead.

(Bb)If I think too much, (Fm7)I can get (Cm)overwhelmed by the grace by which we live (Bb)our ing lives with death (Fm7)over our (Ab)shoulders.

Want you to know

that should you I go, (Bb)I always loved you,

held you high above, (Ab)true.

I all y things face,

let this remain.

(Eb)the fear goes away.

(Ab)I study your face,

the fear goes away,

the fear goes away,

the fear goes (G5)away.

(Eb)The fear goes away, ah,

oh, (Fm7)ah, oh,

(Ab)ah, oh, (Eb)ah,
