[Intro] Cmaj7sus Cmaj7sus C (walk down to Am) [Verse 1] Am Gsus(add9) F Here we are,

C                   D9
laughing at the sea

D9               F
Baby, you and me

F            C           Am         Gsus(add9)  F
Kissing like lovers long deprived of human       touch

F#dim      G
Whispering with two tongues

G#dim                Am  D9
Afraid of saying too much

         Cmaj7sus    C
Why would I let you go?

[Verse 2] Am Gsus(add9) F Here we are,

C                    D9
burning down the sun

D9                   F
Prisoners on the run

F            C          Am      Gsus(add9)      F
Drowning our sorrows in another desperate       embrace

F#dim        G
Pushing back anything that

G#m              Am D9
might get in our way

         Cmaj7sus    C
Why would I let you go?

[Chorus]

    D7           D7
And in my dreams I have the strength

G13sus Gsus13 To not keep love at an arm's length

    C              F
And in my dreams I see myself the way you do

    D7           D7
And in my dreams I understand

G13sus G13sus The value of the love at hand

    C            Ammaj7          F
And in my dreams I love you like I used to

Gsus(add9)-Gsus(add9)-G6(11)-G6(11)
C-walk down to Am

[Verse 3] Am Gsus(add9) F Here we are,

C                   D9
stranded on a cloud

    D9                    F
The ocean's getting loud

F          C            Am           Gsus(add9)    F
Aching for something to prolong this credulous     view

F#dim      G
Asking the sunset for more

G#dim                Am  D9
crimson, violet, and blue

         Cmaj7sus     C
Why would I let you go?

[Chorus]

    D7           D7
And in my dreams I have the strength

G13sus Gsus13 To not keep love at an arm's length

    C              F
And in my dreams I see myself the way you do

    D7           D7
And in my dreams I understand

G13sus G13sus The value of the love at hand

    C            Ammaj7          F
And in my dreams I love you like I used to

Gsus(add9)-Gsus(add9)-G6(11)-G6(11)
C-walk down to Am

[Outro] Am Gsus(add9) F Here we are,

C                   D9
lit up by the moon

D9                      F
Babe, I spoke too soon

F          C               Am     Gsus(add9)   F
Taking for granted all the love I cared to     devour

F#dim      G
Spurning a heart so pure 'cause

G#dim              Am  D9
I can't muster the power

         Cmaj7sus     C
How could I let you go?
