I want to hold you now,
Cadd9Cadd9 D/F#D/F# G+G
And listen to you breathe,
G+G Gadd11 G+G D/F#D/F#
It's like the o------cean sound,
Cadd9Cadd9 D/F#D/F# G+G
Whispering through the trees
E minorEm A7A7 D MajorD
In the hollow of your shoulder
C majorC D/F#D/F#
There's a tide pool of my tears
G+G C majorC
Where the waves came crashing over
D/F#D/F# G+G Gadd11 G+G
And the shoreline disappears.

Fly back there with me,

Where the phosphor shines,
C majorC D/F#D/F# G+G
Green flashlights from the sea,
E minorEm A7A7 D MajorD
And our nets were full of soft shells,
C majorC D/F#D/F#
Our hearts were free from toil,

Till the water reached a boil.

Kiss the dice, taste the rain,

Like little knives upon our tongue,
C majorC D/F#D/F#
We can do no wrong when the lights come on,

And the music plays,
C majorC G+G
And we take the stage like we own the place,

As if time were cheap and the night forever young.

And with the o-------cean's roll,

I will wave to you,

As if time were cheap and the night forever young.
