  			G                            C 
All the lake houses were moving 
                                  G 
They were spinning around in the lake 
                          C 
They were shark-infested waters 
                             G 
They were dangerous places to play 

                         C 
You approached me like a brother 
                             G 
Told me "All that you see isn't true" 
                       C 
A shark pops out of the water 
                        G 
A crucifix carved in his tooth 

                           C 
There was one song left, repeated 
                            G 
As I drifted off, grazing your leg 
                          C 
It was tough to tell your motive 
                               D 
You were stuck between no and a yes 

       G                  C 
When I woke, I saw your anchor 
                           G 
Pierce through the top of my spine 
                          C 
That I pushed too far to recover 
                        D 
As I'm living on borrowing time 

      G                     C 
When you showed up you were glowing 
                      G 
Taking my last breath away 
                    C 
On the arm of some opponent 
                       G 
Gushing at each word he says 

                        C 
When I asked to speak about it 
                       G 
You made it real easy for me 
                      C 
Just because we have a baby 
                           D 
Doesn't mean that you belong to me 

                    C 
Oh, and if I ever lose you 
                       G 
If that horrible day ever comes 
                    C 
I don't know how I'd recover 
                        D 
I don't know what race I'd run 
                  C 
But I know that I'd love you 

                         G            C 
The day that we swore on that ring  
                         G 
The day that we swore on that ring
