C               G        C         G
Well this is just a simple song
C               G        C         G
To say what you've done
C               G        C         G
I told you about all those fears
C               G        C         
And the way they did run
                  G            F
Your show must be strong
F
And you feel like an ocean
                          C     GC   GC
They'd want by the sun


C               G        C         G
When I was just 9 years old
C               G        C         G
I swear that I dreamt
C               G        C         G
Your face on a football field   
C               G        C         
And a kiss that I kept
            G         F
Under my vest
                                               C         G         C
Apart from everything but the heart in my chest


Am                C                       F
I know that things can really get rough
F
When you go it alone
Am              C                         F
Don't go thinking you gotta be tough
F
To play like a stone
Am                        C                    F
Could be there's nothing else in our lives
F
So critical
F
As this little hole


C               G        C         G
My life in an upturned boat
C               G        C         G
Marooned on a cliff
C               G        C         G
You brought me a great big flood    
C               G        C          
And you gave me a lift
             G  F
To care, what a gift
F
And you tell me with your tongue
F
And you're breath was in my lungs
                              Am
And you float over the rift


                  C                        F
I know that things can really get rough
 F
When you go it alone
Am             C                         F
Don't go thinking you gotta be tough
 F
To play like a stone
Am             C                             F
Could be there's nothing else in our lives
F
So critical
F
As this little hole

C               G        C         G
Well this'll be a simple song
C               G        C         G
To say what you've done
C               G        C         G
I told you about all those fears
C               G        C         
And the way they did run
                    G          C
Your show must be strong
                    G          F
And you feel like an ocean
                           C
They'd want by the sun


Am                 C                    F
Remember walking a mile to your house
F
A glow in the dark
Am             C                       F
I made a fumbly play for your heart
F
And the extra, a spark
Am                   C                       F
You're are a trauma, a chain that I stole
F
Especial for you
Am                   C                       F
Love's just a delicate thing that we'd do
F
We've nothing to prove
                              C
Which I never knew
