[Verse 1]
D6add9You've seen the spots on her Bm11back
Gsus2You know the salt of her D6add9tears
Gsus2The dull glow in your D6add9pocket is D6add9/C#only ever a Bm11fear
GThat maybe sometimes it all does go wrong
D6add9 Bm11
D6add9 Bm11
[Pre-Chorus]
G5But she's so goddamn D6add9loyal
D6add9/C#And you've heard some sounds
G5Unhuman D6add9come out D6add9/C#of her mouth
G5The vault door D6add9opened and D6add9/C#shut
And you can't Bm11get out
Did you wanna A9sus4geeeeeet A9out?
[Chorus]
GMaybe like a piece of sea-glass
AShe'll smooth out all of her edges
D6add9And become gracefully Bm11transparent
GTaken from the world
AGiven to the sea
D6add9Returned with Bm11life and history
GThere's not many who Awould stay
So you will
D6add9 Bm11
D6add9 Bm11
[Pre-Chorus]
