Verse 1
Eb Fm
Is there blood beneath your nails?
Ab Eb
Sun casting gold upon the sails
Eb Fm
Are you waiting on an answer
Ab Eb
That doesn’t come?
Verse 2
Eb Fm
And as you’re standing by the water
Ab Eb
Gods, I too have thought...
Eb Fm
But I’m still waiting on an answer,
Ab Eb
That doesn’t come.
Bridge
Eb Fm
And as you’re standing in the water
Ab
A thousand frames I’ve seen
Fm Eb
A dozen times and words I’ve heard before
Fm
That this is the betrayal,
Ab
It’s the blood beneath my nails
Eb
It’s a train run off the rails
Cm
But I’ve been this way before.
Chorus
Fm
And this is where I’d end it,
Ab
I would twist it, I would bend it
Eb
I would change the way it’s written
Cm
‘Cause I've sung this song before
Fm
Do we really have to do this?
Ab
Just to raise it, must you bruise it,
Eb
God, I hate the way it’s written
Cm
‘Cause I wrote this song before
Fm
And as you’re kneeling in the water
Ab
(Gods, I, too, have thought.)
Eb
But I’m still waiting on an answer…
Eb
And I'm not sure that it comes.
Verse 3
Bb
Is there blood beneath your nails?
Ab Eb
Sun sinking red upon the sails
Eb Bb
Are you still waiting on an answer… ?
