Intro: G  Cadd9 

G 
Meet me on the other side 
						 Cadd9 
It's a brand new start to a brand new life, and I'm open 

G 
Cause we both share the same degree 

				  Cadd9 
Of ecology and philosophy, I'm hopin' 

G 
It's a lonely world without a friend 

			     Cadd9 
To lead the way and to depend on 

G 
I need someone to wake me up 

					   Cadd9 
From the lazy sleep that locks me down, I need you 



Em7	     G		     Cadd9 
You lead me down to the water's edge 

Em7	     G		     Cadd9 
Let's take a rest on the riverbed 


G 
Take your time I'm almost there 
				       Cadd9 
I brushed my teeth and combed my hair, one minute 

G 
There's no rush where we will go 

				       Cadd9 
The past has gone, the pace is slow, infinite 

(Chorus) 

G 
Now we need to realize 
			     Cadd9 
All the things I devised before now 

G 
So put a blindfold on my eyes, 
				       Cadd9 
I need to feel your sweet surprise, you know how 

Em7	     G		     Cadd9 
You lead me down to the water's edge 

Em7	     G		     Cadd9 
Let's take a rest on the riverbed 

Em7	     G		     Cadd9 
You lead me down to the water's edge 

Em7	     G		     Cadd9 
You're all that I need, you go ahead
