[Verse 1]
C majorC G6G6
Goddamn you look holy
Am7Am7
Hit from behind with light
C majorC G6G6
You're a painting of a saint
Am7Am7
And I'm nervous, stumbling over my lines
C majorC G6G6 Am7Am7
When I tell you I love you
C majorC
When we stare at Catalina
G6G6 Am7Am7
The city lost to the sea

Carried out by the tides
You were the one thing I got right

[Verse 2]
C majorC G6G6
Goddamn you look holy
Am7Am7
Bathed in the January light
C majorC G6G6
On the floor of our new bedroom
Am7Am7
On the carpet with the window open wide
C majorC G6G6 Am7Am7
When you tell me you love me
I can actually see it
C majorC G6G6 Am7Am7
Your breath frozen in the air
DmDm Dsus2Dsus2 G+G
Newborn droplets of ice
You were the one thing I got right
[Chorus]
FF C majorC Am7Am7
I'm measuring heartbeats and miles away

I was hoping you'd stay
FF
Could you stay?

Out to Wicker Park in August

From your Upper East Side dorm room
