1. Show me, show me, show me, how you do that trick,

          Am                                C

    the one that makes me scream, she said,

            G                             D

    the one that makes me laugh, she said,

              Am                     C

    and threw her arms around my neck.

        G                         D                Am                   C

    Show me how you do it, and I promise you, I promise

                          G   - D               Am                   - C

    that I’ll run away,       I’ll run away with you.

       G                       D

2. Spinning on that dizzy edge,

       Am                           C

    I kissed her face and kissed her head,

              G                         D

    and dreamed of all the different ways

       Am                        C

    I had to make her glow.

       G                     D                    Am                          C

    Why are you so far away, she said, why won’t you ever know

                     G              D                    Am                   - C

    that I’m in love with you, that I’m in love with you.

 

     Em   F                   Em    F 

+  You, soft and only, you, lost and lonely,

    Em      F                         C

    you, strange as angels dancing in the deepest oceans,

                                                 D                 G     - D

    twisting in the water, you’re just like a dream,

                                  Am    - C

    you’re just like a dream.

 

+  G - D - Am - C (3x)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

             G                          D

3. The daylight licked me into shape,

        Am                         C

    I must have been asleep for days,

              G                     D

    and moving lips to breathe her name,

      Am                   C

    I opened up my eyes.

              G                   D                  Am                 C

    And found myself alone, alone, alone above a raging sea,

              G                  D                       Am                           C

    that stole the only girl I loved, and drowned her deep inside of me.

 

      Em   F                   Em   F                      Em   F                         - C

+  You, soft and only, you, lost and lonely, you, just like heaven.
