[Verse 1]
 D                  Em        C
This is where your ship went down
D               Em        C
- Right there, stern and bow
     D              Em      C
You took on waves, took on water
     D              Em    C
You took the blame, even harder
     D                    Em      C
You drug a net across the ocean floor
D                     Em     C
- Beer bottles and a broken oar
     D                 Em        C
You washed on shore beneath the moon
    D                 Em     C
And I’m not sure you want me to
          G              C
But I’ll put you back together


[Chorus]
 A#    A7
Hush, hush
 G#                G
You don’t have to have the answers
 A#    A7
Hush, hush
G#             G
I will gather all the branches
A#              A7
I will light a fire for you
 G#                  G                A#
Rest your head ‘til you’ve had rest enough
     A7          G#            N.C.
Hush -- now hush -- hush, hush


[Verse 2]
D                    Em       C
- It’s worse in the light of day
D                Em         C
- It hurts the things they say
      D               Em      C
You wrote big letters in the sand
     D                 Em         C
You watch the sky and wave your hands
    D                  Em     C
But I love you if they never come
D                  Em        C
I love you in the scorching sun
     D           Em    C
One cup of water at a time
      D           Em       C
‘Til you remember you are mine
            G               C
And I will love you back together


[Chorus]
 A#    A7
Hush, hush
 G#                G
You don’t have to have the answers
 A#    A7
Hush, hush
G#             G
I will gather all the branches
A#              A7
I will light a fire for you
 G#                  G                A#
Rest your head ‘til you’ve had rest enough
     A7          G#            G
Hush -- now hush -- hush, hush


[Verse 3]
     D           Em    C
One cup of water at a time
      D           Em       C
‘Til you remember you are mine
  D              Em      C
I am the calm, I am the sea
      D           Em   C
Your rescue and recovery


[Bridge]
    A#                   A7
And I am the storm that swallowed you
  G#                 G
I let you bleed, I thought you knew
    A#                   A7
And I am the bottom, and I am the floor
  G#                     G
I am the deep you never knew before
  A#                 A7
I let you sink and I let you go
       G#               G
But I caught you in the undertow
    A#                 A7
And I am the shore and I am the flame
    G#           G
And mercy is My name


[Outro]
 Gm   Am7  G#maj7           G
Hush, hush ------ hush now
         A#      A7      G#
You can hush now -- hush -- hush hush
