Intro: Cm Ab Eb Bb

Verse 1:
         Cm           Ab               Eb
I take a chance every day against this tide -Ah-
           Cm         Ab             Eb
I know the way to our hearts isn't a lie -Ah-

            Gm                 Ab          Eb
And when it feels impossible I stay just a little while
    Bb                  Ab         Eb
And then we'll see that reassuring billowing -Billowing-

Chorus 1:

Bb        Ab
The steam rises
      Eb
And I know it's all okay
    Bb    Ab
The steam rises
          Eb                Bb
And we're feeling ourselves again
Bb             Ab
It's a bold accusation
                Eb       Bb
To say one will never be ok
Bb              Ab
'Cause the steam rises
     Eb
Just look I swear you'll see
    Bb          Ab                 Eb
The steam still rises from you and me

              Cm            Ab                    Eb
There's not a day that goes by where you leave my mind
           Cm    Ab                    Eb
The boiler in me burns, is yours still alight? -Alight-
             Gm                      Ab                        Eb
And when I'm waiting for you to come back, these pistons still drive me

And I know we'll see that reassuring billowing -Billowing-

Chorus 2:
Bb        Ab
The steam rises

And I know it's all okay
Bb        Ab
The steam rises
          Eb                 Bb
And we're feeling ourselves again
Bb                  Ab
Try to find the aspiration
                 Eb          Bb
To say that it's going to be okay
Bb               Ab
'Cause the steam rises

Just look I swear you'll see
    Bb    Ab
The steam rises
    Bb    Ab
The steam rises
            Eb
For you and me
