What It Costs by Switchfoot
What It Costs
Verse 1:
G#m E B
Sunlight, fading fast, make it last
F#/A# C#m G#m
Like a flame, flickers then it’s past
G#m E B
Moonlight fades to dark, carry on
F#/A# C#m G#m
You never know what’s real until it’s gone
Prechorus 1:
F#/A# E B
Love deals the currency of loss
F#/A# E F#/A#
Don’t ever forget what it costs
Chorus:
G#m E
Hold on to me
B F#/A#
Carry me through
G#m E
Our story
B F#/A#
Is a pain that we outgrew
G#m E
Yeah, you can’t call it love
B F#/A#
Until you’ve lost
G#m
If you love someone
F#/A#
This is what it costs
Interlude: G#m E B F#
Verse 2:
G#m E B
This city cries softly tonight
F#/A# C#m G#m
Like a million teardrops from a thousand eyes
G#m E B
I’m drenched beneath the rainy Melbourne sky
F#/A# C#m G#m
Wondering how it is I feel so dry inside
Prechorus 2:
F#/A# E B
Well love uses the pain to drill the holes
F#/A# E F#/A#
To irrigate our dry and thirsty souls
