Wrecking

intro:  E b c#m A

E               b
Looting the destroyed
               c#m
Vessels of the sea
                  A
I wondered if the waves
                 E
Had taken all of me
          b
All of me back
            c#m
Down to the black
                    A
Down to where the worms reign silent and green
E         b    c#m    A
Silent

E              b
We can do some wrecking here
              c#m
'Til a little color
                A 
Comes into your face
E              b
We can do some wrecking here
              c#m
And find something to love
        A
In this broken place
            b
This broken place

And the king is a hand
And slaps you like a wave
And shackles you down
Bound like an anchored chain in the sand
Sends your ships o the rocks
Sends the keys to the lock of the chain
On your heart
To the mouth of a serpent
And his scaly glass shards

He's holding all the cards
And waiting in the waves
With the poker face
And no trail to trace
No trail to trace

We can do wrecking here
'Til a little color comes into your face
We can do some wrecking here
And find something to love
In this broken place
This broken place

(Basically it is just the E-B-c#m-A progression throughout the entire song)
