Chords

         D                     G           
With the first light and the little

A         D
Fragile moon

       D         G             
I was out on the porch now

    A         D
I'm ready for doom

         G            A           D
And it's funny how it all came to be

  G            A                D
The way you so plainly chose to stare at me

D                 G            
And the afternoon embraces you

A                      D
Like a million worried hands

D                  G
And I want to look forward

A                   D
Go discover foreign land

G                   A
In the mirror I was balancing 

D
On tiny strings

G                     A
It looks silly but oh really it's just 

D
A physical thing

D          G
So tell me why you ask me

A          D
To do as I please

D              G
I would rather fall backwards

A          D
And forget everything

G                 A
And I've tried to call on you when

D
I know you're not home

G             A
I'm not ready for this but it's

D
The way it goes
G A D x2
D                  G
It was easier when I knew 

A                    D
Nnothing of what I'd missed 

D                     G        
You're so happy I can see it and that's

A                 D
The worst part of it

G               A
So let her take you out

D
On sea

G                           A
I will wave to you from the harbor

D
Oh little silly me 

Em          A
The sailors leave in the morning

Dm          A
I'll be waiting for you all night

Em            A
The ship sets off in the morning

Em            A                Em
I'll be waiting for you all right

        A        Em
Oh night

        A        Em
Oh night

        A        Em
Oh night

        A
Oh night
