B C#m A
I have so many anchors
A B C#m A
So many, so many, so many anchors
A B C#m
A
Far too many to be sailing on these seas
C#m B C#m
A
They're pulling me under and I just want to be freed
C#m B C#m
But I'm just drowning and clasping
C#m
To the tinder and twine
E F#m A
Not the firm planks and rope that I know to be mine
B C#m
That I know to be mine
C#m E F#m
I have so many anchors bound to my feet
A
B
It feels like I'll forever be bound to the bottom of these seas
C#m E B
A
Will you hear nothing I say as the tide just sweeps and sways
B C#m
As the anchors that bind me just rust and decay
C#m E B
A
As I tear my flesh from bone, as I scream out to the sky
F#
When will I find my way home?
B C#m A
There are sirens watching me, and they whisper and smile to me
B C#m A
B
And I'm screaming out to them, please take these anchors from my feet
OH!
C#m B C#m A
B C#m
I see the moon up above, I've failed my hope, I've thrown out my love
C#m B C#m A
B C#m
I still want to live, I still want to hope, I still want to give, I still want to grow
F# A
F# A
I was dead and gone, I was cold and alone, I was weighed down and buried
B
When will I find my way home?
C#m E B
A
Will you hear nothing I say as the tide just sweeps and sways
B C#m
As the anchors that bind me just rust and decay
C#m E B
A
As I tear my flesh from bone, as I scream out to the sky
F#
When will I find my way home?
C#m B A B x2
woahhhhh, etc.
Let's get it
C#m B A B
When will I find my way home?
[x2]
C#m E B
A
Will you hear nothing I say as the tide just sweeps and sways
B C#m
As the anchors that bind me just rust and decay
C#m E B
A
As I tear my flesh from bone, as I scream out to the sky
F#
When will I find my way home?
C#m E B
A
As I tear my flesh from bone, as I scream out to the sky

When will I find my way home?
