Sirens Chords & Lyrics - The Gray Havens

[CHORUS 1]
N.C.
Hold on! Hold on, my heart!
You once were full, and sang of grace!
Hold on!

[VERSE 1]
One [Em]taste of the sound from the Sirens in the water
And I'm thinking, "[Em]I should get out this sharpest sword and suit of armor,"
So I can be [F#dim]ready to strike. But I [Em]pause, one more time.
One last [D#dim]taste of the sound, then I'll [Em]cut these Sirens down.
But as they [D#dim]sang, I forgot. They were [Em]death so I brought
Them my [F#dim]heart to be filled, and [Em]I followed them.

[VERSE 2]
No [Em]trace could I find of any joy the Sirens promised.
They had found a [Em]way with the light: turned what's good and should be wanted
Into what is [F#dim]highest above all de[Em]sires and loves,
'Till my [D#dim]heart would obey whatever it [Em]wants, whatever it takes
To feel a[D#dim]live and set free, only [Em]bound to the sea,
Where the [F#dim]Sirens are leading me [Em]on.

[CHORUS 2]
[Em]Hold on![G] Hold on, my [C]heart!
You once were [G]full, and sang of [Em]grace!
Hold on![G] Hold on, my [C]heart!
You've tasted [G]joy that's more than [Em]this. (2x)
Hold [G]on!
