Introduction:
G C G D C
I want to hold you now
G C
And listen to you breathe
G C D C
It's like the ocean sound
G Em
Whispering through the trees
A D
In the hollow of your shoulder
Bm C D G
There's a tide pool of my tears
C D
Where the waves came crashing over
G
And the shoreline disappears
D C
Baby close your eyes
G
Fly back there with me
D C
Where the phosphor shines
D G Em
Green flashlights from the sea
A Bm
Our nets were full of soft shells
C D G
Our hearts were free from toil
C D
And we made love on the kitchen table
G
Till the water reached a boil
C D G
We hold it all for a little while, don't we...
C G
Kiss the dice, taste the rain
D G
Like little knives upon our tongue
C D
We can do no wrong when the lights come on
G D
And the music plays
C G
And we take the stage like we own the place
D C G C G D C D G C G
As if time were cheap and the night forever young
D C
So let 'em turn my soul
G C G
Seven shades of blue
C D C
And with the ocean's roll
Bm G Em
I will wave to you
A
And the birds will sing my laughter
C D
And the whales will steal my song
G C G D
But I'll be ok forever after
G
And the world will get along
C D G
We hold it all for a little while, don't we?
Bm C G D G C G
Kiss the dice, taste the rain like little knives upon our tongue
C D G D
We can do no wrong when the lights go on and the music plays
C G
And we take the stage like we own the place
D C G Em G D C G D C G
As if time were cheap and the night forever young
