[Verse 1]
E
We live high, our love gorges on the alcohol we feed it

E
And it grows all fat and friendly, we have surplus if we need it

       Amaj7sus2             A                     E
We hold on as hard as we can, our knuckles are white

E
We write letters to each other, invent secrets to confess to

E
I learn foreign and exotic terms of endearment by which to address you

       Amaj7sus2                A                      E
We feed fresh fruit to one another, we stay up all night
[Chorus]
             B                             A
And I am healthy, I am whole, but I have poor impulse control

              E                B
And I want to go home, but I am home
[Verse 2]
E
We are strong, we are faithful, we are guardians of a rare thing

E
We pay close, careful attention to the news the morning air brings

        Amaj7sus2    A                         E
We show great loyalty to the hard times we've been through

E
We are filled with riches and wonders, our love keeps the things it finds

E
And we dance like drunken sailors, lost at sea out of our minds

         Amaj7sus2               A                              E
You find shelter somewhere in me, and I find great comfort in you
[Chorus]
            B                             A
And I keep you safe from harm, you hold me in your arms

               E              B
And I want to go home, but I am home
[Interlude] E E Amaj7sus2 A [End] E
