Driftwood letters © Mitch Townley Capo 3
(v1)
(G) Imagine that you’re lost deep in a (C) valley (G) Finding only footprints that you’ve (C) left
Sur(G) rounded by walls of sheer frus(C) tratio (Am) Pressing in as (D7) you search for an (G) end
(Chorus)
Do you (C) see (D) it? Are (C) you in that (G) place?
Where despe(C) ra(D) tion is (Am) beating on your (G) face.
You try to (C) wake (D7) up, (Am) but it’s not a (Em) dream.
You’re (G) living where I (D) thought I couldn’t (G) leave.
(v2)
Con(G)sider for a moment that you (C) walk out/ Just to (G) find yourself drowning in the (C) sea
You (G) see an island way off the (C) distance / (Am) and somehow you (D7) make it to the(G) beach
You’re alive, but how do you get (C) back home / Does (G) anyone know you’re even (C) gone
Do they (G) see you stranded on that (C) island As they (Am) talk to you while (D7) life keeps moving (G) on
(Repeat Chorus)
(bridge)
(C) Hold (Em) on..throw that (Am) message in a bottle out to (G) sea
(C) Hold (Em) on..Write (Am) help in driftwood (D7) letters on the(G) beach
(Chorus)
Do you (C) see (D) it? Are (C) you in that (G) place?
Where despe(C) ra(D) tion is (Am) beating on your (G) face.
You try to (C) wake (D7) up, (Am) but it’s not a (E7) dream.
You’re(G) living where I (D) thought I couldn’t (Em) leave.
Till (Am) I wrote driftwood (D7) letters on the beach (G)
Write your driftwood letters on the beach
