Rebel Tide

This is the acoustic version of the track Rebel Tide from the Embellish EP (listen to it here: https://soundcloud.com/thejellyrox/rebel-tide-coffee-house). This is an amazing song, and really easy and really fun to play. The only thing I would suggest is being careful of the timing of the chords. The transitions are syncopated, but once you get the hang of it, it's a piece of cake. Enjoy! Standard Tuning verse 1: I'm shooting for the stars to hit the moon Mapping out a course for both my shoes I've already practiced acting like there's nothing to it. Try to hold the world together in my mind Try to make it snow in mid-July Try to prove my heart is worth the blood that's pumping through it Pre-Chorus Praying like a child on Christmas Eve Father won't you raise the sun early? If you do this one last thing for me I'll be your soldier And it takes you by surprise Like a rebel tide Like lightning from the sky has been searching for you And it splits you like a knife The moment that it strikes When you realize that death was looking for you. Verse2: I try to keep my hopes above my doubts Try to keep my thoughts above my mouth I feel like a satellite just dying to leave my orbit I take another shot at faking love Miss it by a mile and then some My insides are thirsty for whatever drink you're pouring Pre-Chorus Praying like a child on Christmas Eve Father won't you raise the sun early? I ask an awful lot of both my knees just waiting for you And it takes you by surprise Like a rebel tide Like lightning from the sky has been searching for you And it splits you like a knife The moment that it strikes When you realize that death was looking for you. He was looking for you Oh... Oh... And it takes you by surprise Like a rebel tide Like lightning from the sky has been searching for you And it splits you like a knife The moment that it strikes When you realize that death was looking for you. He was looking for you Oh... Oh... When you find out death was looking for you End on:
