You Can Tell Yourself Never Wanted More
If It Will
(and so on)
In the change from the "...we'd evened the score" part to the "Losing Our Soles" part
Micah moves immediately
from the D Chord to the C Chord, without minor details. Therefore the A String note goes
from "5" to "3"
directly.

There Drow ning below
You can tell yourself, I've never wanted more.
If it will help you fool yourself, to believing we'd evened the score.
Losing our soles and you couldn't see.
The flood come down to my knees
And you were there, drowning, alone
You can tell yourself, I've never wanted more.
If it will help you fool yourself, to believing there was nothing more.
Lost in my soul and you couldn't see,
The fire came up to my knees
And you were there, burning, alone.
