Verse 1:
C majorC E MajorE FF
Remember when you'd sing just for the fuck of it?
A minorAm C majorC FF
Any joy it would bring, honey, the look of it
C majorC E MajorE FF
Was as sweet as the sound
A minorAm C majorC FF
Your head tilt back, your funny mouth to the clouds
C majorC E MajorE FF
I couldn't hope to know that song and all its words
A minorAm C majorC FF
Wouldn't claim to feel the same it felt the first time it was heard
C majorC E MajorE FF
I couldn't name that feeling carried in that voice
A minorAm C majorC FF
Was it that or just the act of making noise that brought you joy?

FF
You don't have to sing it right
G+G
Who could call you wrong?
A minorAm
You put your emptiness to melody
C majorC FF
Your awful heart to song

You don't have to sing it nice, but honey sing it strong
A minorAm
At best, you'll find a little remedy
C majorC FF
At worst, the world will sing along

So honey, sing, sing

Was whatever you choose
A minorAm C majorC FF
I want to be your lover or the fisherman's blues

You didn't always sing it right
