G                      A              G   A
Jumping for joy like a dolphin in the sea

   G                           A                 G  A
So engrossed in the words that she was saying to me

        G                          A             G  A
We were hanging like shirts drying in the midday sun

            G                A                    E
Her fragile heart was saved, sadness had been overrun

D                                   G
Her heart was so open, there was no lock and key

     D                                     G
So I walked inside, found a place just for me
E | E | E | E | [Verse 2]
G                    A             G     A
Jumping for joy on a trampoline of change

       G                         A                 G   A
Up and down all the time, like a bird trapped in a cage

        G                            A           G    A
We were mewling like socks that were lost in the dryer

        G               A                   E
But somehow we survived from the scrapheap, and the fire

D                                        G
Her face could melt butter and turn dark clouds away

      D                                      G
I was jumping for joy when she plugged in to play
[Chorus]
         A                             Bm
Like the crickets in the grass and the frogs in the pond

        A                        D                Bm
We were jumping for joy, knowing nothing could go wrong

        G        D
We were jumping (na na-na na)

        G        D
We were jumping (na na-na na)

        G        D
We were jumping (na na-na na)

Em      E
Jumpiiiiing

A                      B              A  B
Jumping for joy in the morning by the bed

        A                         B              A  B
Looking out of the window, seeing doves upon the shed

   A                         B             A  B
We brewed up some coffee and opened up the oven

         A                      B               F#m
Well she stood and got dressed, she's as bright as a button

E                                  A
Her life was dirtier than mine and deeper too

E                               A
We were like peas in a pod with nothing to do
[Chorus]
         B                             C#m
Like the crickets in the grass and the frogs in the pond

        B                        E
We were jumping for joy, knowing nothing could go wrong

        A        E
We were jumping (na na-na na)

        A        E
We were jumping (na na-na na)

        A        E
We were jumping (na na-na na)

A    E    A  E
Jumpiiiiing

A    E    A  E
Jumpiiiiing
