[Verse 1]
G Bm I keep floating down the river but the ocean never comes G C And since the operation I heard you're breathing just for one Am D7 Now everything is imaginary, especially what you love Am C G You left another message said it's done, It's done
[Verse 2]
G Bm When I hear beautiful music it's always from another time G C Old friends I never visit, I remember what they're like Am D7 Standing on a doorstep full of nervous butterflies Am C G Waiting to be asked to come inside Just come inside
[Chorus]
Am D7 But I keep go-o-o-o-oing out Bm Am I can't sleep next to a stranger when I'm coming down B7 C G It's 8 a.m. my heart is beating too loud, Too loud D7 Am B7 C Don't be-e-e-e so ama-a-a-azing or I'll miss you too much B7 C G I felt something that I had never touched
[Verse 3]
G Bm Everything gets smaller now the further that I go G C Towards the mouth and the reunion of the Known and the Unknown Am D7 Consider yourself lucky if you think of it as home Am C G You can move mountains with your misery if you don't, If you don't
[Verse 4]
G Bm It comes to me in fragments, even those still split in two G C Under the leaves of that old Lime Tree I stood examining the fruit Am D7 Some were ripe and some were rotten, I felt nauseous with the truth Am C G There will never be a time more opportune
[Chorus]
Am D7 So I just won't be late Bm Am The window closes, shock rolls over in a tidal wave B7 C G And all the color drains out of the frame D7 Am B7 C So pleased with a daydream that now living is no good B7 C I took off my shoes and walked into the woods B7 C G I felt lost and found with every step I took
