Am

Verse:
               G/A               Am
You brought me up and out of the water
               G/A      C
You brought me up to forget
      Dm                 Am
I had ever been, I could ever breathe
       F     G          Dm
In the water under your heart

Verse:
Am            G/A                     Am
Darkened your door and your days, you said
             G/A       C
You couldn't sleep the night
         Dm               Am
With the sound of the sea hard on my heels
F            G              Dm
Climbing the stairs to your bed

Chorus:
    Am                          F            C
You promised me gloves from the skins of the fishes
    Am                         F          G
The smile of the dolphin for a ring in my hands
    Am           Em            F             C
You left me with nothing but a mouth full of air
      Dm         Em          F
And a promise as wide as the ocean

Verse:
Am         G/A                   Am
You let me down for once and for all
            G/A        C
You left me out in the open
      Dm              Am
Under mackerel skies, high and dry
F          G            Dm
Out of the reach of our sea

Verse:
Am         G/A                 Am
Way out of reach and out of my depth
            G/A         C
I wear your love like a skin
     Dm                Am
That hurts when anyone touches me
      F          G        Dm           Em
Where you let me down for once and for all
F          G            Dm
Out of the reach of our sea

Chorus:
    Am                          F            C
You promised me gloves from the skins of the fishes
    Am                         F          G
The smile of the dolphin for a ring in my hands
    Am           Em            F             C
You left me with nothing but a mouth full of air
      Dm         Em          F
And a promise as wide as the ocean

Instrumental:
Am    F  C  Am    F  G  Am  Em  F  C  Dm  Em  F

Verse:
Am             G/A               Am
You brought me up and out of the water
               G/A      C
You brought me up to forget
      Dm                 Am
I had ever been, I could ever breathe
       F     G          Dm
In the water under your heart
       F     G          Dm
In the water under your heart
       F     G          Dm
In the water under your heart
