[Verse 1]
N.C. Em7 A7
You look so beautiful dreaming
N.C. D7
Don't wanna wake you up
N.C. Em7 A7
Just let you keep on believing
N.C. D7
It isn't all just made up
[Chorus 1]
G A
You're both Jonah and the Whale
G A
It's time to recast this tale
G A
Guess it just goes to show
Em7 A7
That you should not meet your heroes
[Verse 2]
N.C. Em7 A7
Too long since you've seen the moon rise
N.C. D7
To know if it waxes or wanes
N.C. Em7 A7
It's been so long since you looked up
N.C. D7
You've got no room to complain
[Chorus 2]
G A
You used to jump, jive, & wail
G A
Now your act has gone stale
G A
Think if you put on a show
Em7 A7
There's a chance that they will not know

[Verse 3]
N.C. Em7 A7
Been spending all your time chasing
N.C. D7
A day that won't ever come
N.C. Em7 A7
And running faster in circles
N.C. D7
At this point seems kinda dumb
[Chorus 3]
G A
You're both Ahab and the Whale
G A
Time to adjust your sails
G A
And by now you should know
Em7 A7
Every villain thinks he's the hero
[Outro]
N.C. Em7 A7
You look so beautiful dreaming
N.C. D7
Don't need to wake you up
N.C. Em7 A7
I'll let you sleep on, pretending
N.C. D7
You're going nowhere but up
