[Intro]
G Gadd11 G D/F#
Cadd9 D/F# G
 
[Verse 1]
G Gadd11 G D/F#
I want to hold you now,
Cadd9 D/F# G
And listen to you breathe,
G Gadd11 G D/F#
It's like the o------cean sound,
Cadd9 D/F# G
Whispering through the trees
Em A7 D
In the hollow of your shoulder
C D/F#
There's a tide pool of my tears
G C
Where the waves came crashing over
D/F# G Gadd11 G
And the shoreline disappears.
 
[Verse 2]
G Gadd11 G D/F#
Baby, close your eyes,
Cadd9 D/F# G Gadd11 G
Fly back there with me,
G G D/F# D
Where the phosphor shines,
C D/F# G
Green flashlights from the sea,
Em A7 D
And our nets were full of soft shells,
C D/F#
Our hearts were free from toil,
G C
And we made love on the kitchen table
D/F# G Gadd11 G
Till the water reached a boil.
 
[Chorus]
C D/F# G
We hold it all for a little while, don't we?
D/F# C G
Kiss the dice, taste the rain,
D/F# G
Like little knives upon our tongue,
C D/F#
We can do no wrong when the lights come on,
G
And the music plays,
C G
And we take the stage like we own the place,
D/F# C G
As if time were cheap and the night forever young.
 
[Instrumental]
G D/F# C D G
G D/F# C D G
 
[Verse 3]
G Gadd11 G D/F#
So let 'em turn my soul,
Cadd9 D/F# G Gadd11 G
Seven shades of blue,
G Gadd11 G D/F#
And with the o-------cean's roll,
Cadd9 D/F# G Gadd11 G D/F#
I will wave to you,
Am A
And the birds will sing my laughter,
G/B C D/F#
And the whales will steal my song,
G C
But I'll be ok forever after,
D/F# G
And the world will get along.
 
[Chorus]
C D/F# G
We hold it all for a little while, don't we?
D/F# C G
Kiss the dice, taste the rain,
D/F# G
Like little knives upon our tongue,
C D/F#
We can do no wrong when the lights come on,
G
And the music plays,
C G
And we take the stage like we own the place,
D/F# C G
As if time were cheap and the night forever young.
 
[Outro]
G D/F#
Ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh,
C D/F# G
Ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh, ooh, ooh.
