Key: F

Introduction:  F   C   F   Am7   F  

 F                                           C 
I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light
 F                                                                     Am7                                   G 
Walking down by the bay, on the shore, staring up at the planes that aren’t
there anymore
 F                                                         C 
I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold
 F                                   Am7 
Like an introvert, I drew my over shirt
 C                                         G                                                         F 
Around my arms and began to shiver violently before
                                                     C 
You happened to look and see the tunnels all around me
 F                                                               Am7 
Running into the dark underground
                                           G 
All the subways around create a great sound
 F                                                     C 
To my motion fatigue: farewell
With your ear to a seashell
 F 
You can hear the waves in underwater caves
 Am7                                   G                                               C 
As if you actually were inside a saltwater room
 G                                       F                       C 
Time together isn't ever quite enough
                                                     F 
When you and I are alone, I’ve never felt so at home
 G                                                           F                                     C 
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
                               F 
We need time, only time
   G                                                   F                             C 
When we're apart, whatever are you thinking of?
                                                             F 
If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone?
   G                                                     F                                 C 
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
                                       G 
All the time, all the time
   F                                                                 C 
Can you believe that the crew has gone and wouldn’t let me sign on
   F                                                           Am7                                       C 
All my islands have sunk in the deep, so I can hardly relax or even oversleep
   F                                                                   C 
I feel as if I were home some nights, when we count all the ship lights
   F                                                                                     Am7 
I guess I'll never know why sparrows love the snow
                                                       C 
We’ll turn out all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow
   G                                                     F                                 C 
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
                                       F 
All the time, all the time
 G                                       F                       C 
Time together isn't ever quite enough
                                                     F 
When you and I are alone, I’ve never felt so at home
 G                                                           F                                     C 
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
                               F 
We need time, only time
   G                                                   F                             C 
When we're apart, whatever are you thinking of?
                                                             F 
If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone?
   G                                                     F                                 C 
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
                                       G 
All the time, all the time

 G                                       F                       C 
Time together isn't ever quite enough
                                                         F 
When we're apart, whatever are you thinking of?
 G                                                           F                                     C 
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
                                                         F                                 C 
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
   G 
All the time, all the time
