Verse 1
I lie below, you float above
In the pretty white ships that I've been dreaming of
G A7Sus4
And I'd like to swim beside you
G A7Sus4
Getting dizzy in your wake
G A7Sus4
Getting close enough to touch you
G A7Sus4 D
Getting brave enough to take you into my arms
And bring you down to be with me
Chorus 1
(2 fr.)
But I can't do that thing anymore
(2 fr.)
I can't be the thing I was before
(2 fr.)
Maybe I am better off alone
Because I crush everything and I crush everything
and I crush everything
Intro Riff
Verse 2
My body's strong, but my will is weak
I got pretty nice arms, but I hate my beak
G A7Sus4
And the dolphins are all phonies
G A7Sus4
They seem nice enough at first
G A7Sus4
But they pretend to be your friend
G A7Sus4 D
Until they see you at your worst and then they leave you
Without a word they swim away
Chorus 2
(2 fr.)
So I can't do that thing anymore
(2 fr.)
I can't be the thing I was before
(2 fr.)
Maybe I am better off alone
Because I crush everything and I crush everything
and I crush everything
Bridge
(2 fr.)
And every thing I want I take
(2 fr.)
And every thing I love I break
(2 fr.)
And every night I lie awake
Intro Riff
Verse 3
Did the stars come out? Did the world spin round?
Does it matter that much when you're ten miles down?
G A7Sus4
In the light that filters down
G A7Sus4
Into my giant yellow eye
G A7Sus4
I can see the sails unfolding
G A7Sus4 D
Stretching white against the sky and I forgive them
I forgive and I let go
Chorus 3
(2 fr.)
Cause I can't do that thing anymore
(2 fr.)
I can't be the thing I was before
(2 fr.)
Maybe I am better off alone
Because I crush everything and I crush everything
and I crush everything
Intro Riff
Outro
I lie below, you float above
In the pretty white ships that I am dreaming of
