Verse
I keep Gfloatin' down the river, but the Docean never comes
G Am (Am7)
And since the operation, I heard you're breathing just for once
Em7 F#/G
Now everything is imaginary, especially what you love
Em7 Dsus2 Dsus* * G|-0h2-0------|
You left another message, said "it's done", it's done D|------0h2-0-|
G G/A
When I Ghear beautiful music, it's always Dfrom another time,
G Am (Am7)
Old friends I never visit, well, I remember what they're like
Em7 F#/G
Standing on a doorstep full of nervous butterflies,
Em7 Dsus2 Dsus*
Waiting to be asked to come inside, just come inside
G
Chorus
But I keep BmGo-oh-oh Go-oh-oh-in' oDut
G F#/G Em7
And I can sleep next to a stranger when I'm comming down
It's 8A.BmM. my heart's beAmating too loud, too loud G
Don't Bmbe so aAmmazing, Em7or I'll miAmss you too much
Em7 Dsus2 Dsus*
I felt something that I have never touched
(I may be wrong, this part is tough to hear under the strings)

EverythGing gets smaller now the Dfurther that I go

Towards the mouth and the reunion of the known and the unknown
Em7 F#/G
Consider yourself lucky if you think of it as home

You can move mountains with your misery if you don't, if you don't
It comeGs to me in fragments, even Dthose still split in two
G Am (Am7)
Under the eaves of that old Lime Tree I stood examining the fruit
Em7 F#/G
Some were ripe and some were rotten, I felt nauseous with the truth
Em7 Dsus2 Dsus*
There will never be a time more opportune
So I just Bmwon't be lDate
G F#/G Em7
The window closes, shocks roll over in a tidal wave
And all the Bmcolor drains out of Amthe frame G
So pBmleased with a daydream that now lDiving is no good
G F#/G Em7
I took off my shoes and walked into the woods
Em7 Dsus2 Dsus* G
I felt lost and found with every step I took
