[Am]Its all there underneath
everything we love and need
you and [Dm]I [Em]

squeezing through the cracks between
day and ni[Dm]night [Em]

Its such a lon[Dm]longshot
everything that [Em]we've got
just living on t[F]this rock
surrounded by the [Am]sea
With our sh[Dm]shoes off
balancing on [Em]rooftops
you put your faith in [F]preachers
I put my faith in [Am]me

I will kick and scream
tell you w[Dm]why [Em]

I put my faith in [Am]me
