G                 Cadd9  D
Night swimming

G                 Cadd9    A7sus4
deserves a quiet night

    G            Cadd9    D
The photograph on the dashboard

G                 Cadd9    A7sus4
taken years ago

Cadd9                        D
turned around backwards so the windshield shows

G                 Cadd9    D
Every streetlight reveals

    G                Cadd9    A7sus4
the picture in reverse

Cadd9             D
Still it's so much clearer

G                 Cadd9    D
I forgot my shirt at the

G                 Cadd9   A7sus4
water's edge The moon is low

  Cadd9             D
tonight.

G                 Cadd9    D
Night swimming

G                 Cadd9    A7sus4
deserves a quiet night I'm

Cadd9             D
not sure all these people under

G                 Cadd9    D
stand It's not like years

G                 Cadd9    A7sus4
ago The fear of getting

Cadd9             D
caught of recklessness and

G                 Cadd9    D
water They cannot see me

G                 Cadd9    A7sus4
naked These things they go

Cadd9             D
away replaced by every

G                Cadd9  D
day Night swimming

G                 Cadd9    A7sus4
remembering that night

   Cadd9             D
September's coming soon I'm

G                 Cadd9    D
pining for the moon And

G                  Cadd9   A7sus4
what if there were two side by

Cadd9             D
side in orbit around the fairest

G                 Cadd9    D
sun That bright tight

   G                Cadd9    A7sus4
forever drum cannot describe night

Cadd9             D
swimming.

G                 Cadd9    D
You I thought I knew you

G                 Cadd9    A7sus4
You I cannot judge

Cadd9              D
You I thought you knew me This one's

G                 Cadd9    D
laughing quietly under

G                 Cadd9    A7sus4
neath my breath Night

Cadd9             D
swimming.

    G          Cadd9  D
The photograph reflects every

G             Cadd9   A7sus4
streetlight a reminder Night

Cadd9        D
swimming deserves a quiet

G             Cadd9   D
night.

G              Cadd9   A7sus4
deserves a quiet

Cadd9         D
night.
