All the way down
6/8
Verse 1
E x 4 A x 2
A man and a woman went over a waterfall –
A x 3 E x 2
one was a suicide one was a saint
E x 4 A x 2
Both of them climbed out of the water laughing
A x 3 E x 2
one was the same the other had changed
Chorus
C# E F#7 (C# / B ) A x 2
and we all go all the way down -- some have already arrived
A B F# x 2 E x 4
for me it takes a shipwreck to learn how to dive, to learn how to dive
Verse 2
E x 4 A x 2
A boy and his lover swore on a promise ring
A x 3 E x 2
Then laughed out loud at the ridiculous thing
E x 4 A x 2
Their words were made of paper – stuff that would fall right apart
A x 3 E x 2
But words can cut deep when they’re aimed from the heart
Chorus repeat
Bridge
Verse 3
E x 4 A x 2
A man and a mystic went under the ocean
A x 3 E x 2
Laughing and crying and speaking in tongues
E x 4 A x 2
One of them was breathing the brine
A x 3 E x 2
The other had fluid inside of his lungs

Immune System
Verse 1
Cmaj –Bbmaj – Am – Fmaj x 3
I never really noticed you were keeping me alive
being still and open-eyed.
Being here when I arrived
and now I’m getting wiser to things you always knew
Cmaj – Bbmaj – Am - Dmaj
that my traveling mind needs a place to come home
Pre-Chorus
Fmaj – Cmaj
It was me – the games I played with you
Am – Cmaj – Dm – Fmaj
I was distracted here at first by all the things I want to do
Chorus:
Fmaj Am Dm Fmaj Am - Dmaj/Fmaj
You were my immunity Words don’t ring as true as all the things you do
Fmaj Cmaj Am Cmaj Dm – Fmaj x2
You were my immunity and I never even knew I had it so easy
Verse 2
Cmaj –Bbmaj – Am – Fmaj x 3
[once through instrumental]
Spare the fever, spoil the child,
and I cursed at how you kept me from running wild
So I slipped over the back gate, singing in the wind
Cmaj – Bbmaj – Am - Dmaj
And I always thought that you would let me come back in
Repeat Pre-chorus
Fmaj Cmaj Am Cmaj Dmaj
It was you – you protected me. I rejected it at first, but now I see
Chorus (w. slight change into bridge)
Fmaj Am Dm Fmaj Am - Dmaj
You were my immunity Words don’t ring as true as all the things you do

Dm – Cmaj
Verse:
Fmaj Dm Cmaj x 4
May rest from your searching, Crack open like a seed
May the thing that you want be the thing that you need
May you take the blame gently may it never wear you down
May those insults glitter on your brow just like a crown, and if
Chorus repeat
Solo over verse chords
After everything that’s happened, you’re still coming back for more
May your only disappointment be there’s nothing worse in store
Cuz it’s hard to think straight here, hard to not make things worse
Even harder still to tell a blessing from a curse, and if…
Chorus repeat
Bridge:
Cmaj
Do something for someone
Bbmaj
Do something for someone
Cmaj
Do something for someone
Bbmaj
Do something for someone

Son, I know you’re eager now to leave this house I built for you – there are

Hills to be king of in places I never knew oh, but

have I told you son, what it’s like to be the son of a man always first among his company

Of course he fails, but not before he learns how to set his own son free

To fly under the sun over the sea (and if you…)

Disillusionment
Em – G – D
I really don’t think so
I really don’t think so
I used to believe I was one of the good guys
I used to believe that we were gonna get there
I used to believe that I would never sacrifice truth for love
I used to believe that I could be the one to end our arguments
I really don’t think so
I really don’t think so now
I really don’t think so
I really don’t think so now
Em G A G
Now I see how these stories filled the darkness
Em G D
And kept me blind to the possibility
Em G A G
That I could still be loved without a reason
Em G A
I don’t need some gold-plated destiny
I really don’t think so
I really don’t think so now
I really don’t think so
I really don’t think so now
(the sun is rising
and my tired eyes
have never seen a world like this one
I really don’t think so)
I used to believe I knew what was coming

I know your day is filled with so many things
You can’t even keep up with all the songs you sing
I ain’t got nothing but time, though—I’m gonna hang around
I’m gonna help you build your castle back on the ground
Chorus: just wait till you get…

There was a time when you trusted me like a friend

Listen we we’ve got the same destination – to love and be free
And I know that you’re going to get there—you’re going to get there with me
