[Verse 1]
C                       E F
Remember when you'd sing   just for the fuck of it?

    Am                 C F
Any joy it would bring,   honey, the look of it

       C                  E F
Was as sweet as the sound

                                Am                 C F
Your head tilt back, your funny mouth to the clouds

            C                    E       F
I couldn't hope to know that song or know it's words

                           Am                        C     F
Wouldn't claim to feel the same we'd felt the first time it was heard

                C                    E       F
And I couldn't name that feeling carried in that voice

                        Am                 C           F
Was it that or just the act of making noise that brought you joy?
[Pre-Chorus]
                              F
You don't have to sing it right

                        G
But who could call you wrong?

                          Am
To put your emptiness to melody

    C              F
Your awful heart to song

                           F                         G
You don't have to sing it nice, but honey sing it strong

                               Am
At best, you'll find a little remedy

        C                    F
At worst, the world will sing along
[Chorus]
              C F G
So honey, sing,    sing

    Am    C      F
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing

 C   F G
Sing,  sing

    Am    C       F
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
[Verse 2]
C                       E F
Remember when you'd sing   before we'd move to it?

          Am                C F
And we'd scuff up our shoes,   honey, the groove of it

        C                E F
Was whatever you'd choose

                                  Am              C F
"I Wanna Be Your Lover" or "The Fisherman's Blues"
[Pre-Chorus]
                           F
You didn't always sing it right

                         G
But who could call you wrong?

                         Am
To put your emptiness to melody

    C             F
Your awful heart to song

                           F                         G
You don't have to sing it nice, but honey sing it strong

                               Am
At best, you'll find a little remedy

        C                    F
At worst, the world will sing along
[Chorus]
              C F G
So honey, sing,    sing

    Am    C      F
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing

 C   F G
Sing,  sing

    Am    C       F
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
[Bridge]
          Am                          G
Who could ask you: be unbroken or be brave again?

            C       E                   F
Or, honey, hope even on this side of the grave again?

             Am                         G
And who could ask you to be sound or to feel saved again?

            C                E              F
But stick around until you hear that music play again
[Chorus]
              C F G
So honey, sing,    sing

    Am    C      F
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing

 C   F G
Sing,  sing

    Am    C       F
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing

              C F G
So honey, sing,    sing

    Am    C      F
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing

 C   F G
Sing,  sing

    Am    C       F
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
[Outro]
C                       E F
Remember when you'd sing   just for the love of it?

        Am                C F
And the joy it would bring
