Intro
G
Verse 1
Em7
Oh Florida please, be still tonight, don't disturb this love of mine
G
Look how she's so serene, you've gotta help me out
Em7
And count the stars to form in lines and find the words we'll sing in time
G
I want to keep her dreaming, it's my one wish, I won't forget this
Pre-Chorus
D
I'm outdated, overrated
D
Morning seems so far away
Chorus
Gsus
So I'll sing a melody
Cadd9
And hope to God she's listening
Dsus
Sleeping softly while I sing
Gsus
And I'll be your memories
Cadd9
Your lullaby for all the times
Dsus
Hoping that my voice could get it right
**Now, one guitar repeats the intro and the other does a little diddle.. :D

Verse 2
Em7
If luck is on my side tonight, my clumsy tongue will make it right
G
And wrists that touch, it isn't much, but it's enough
Em7
To form imaginary lines, forget your scars, we'll forget mine
Cadd9
The hours change so fast, oh God, please make this last
Pre-Chorus
