The Saltwater Room, by Owl City
Standard Tuning
Capo on the 5th
I think to get the most sound of chords in this song without arpeggiating is
this variation of C and G only in the verse, every other chord is played
standard in the rest of the song (including the chorus). Also it sounds
better to end both verses with a standard G chord.

A|-3

I opened my eyes last night, and saw you in the lowlight
Walking down by the bay, on the shore
Staring up at the planes that arent there anymore
I was feeling the night, grow old, and you were looking so cold
Like an introvert, I drew my over shirt
Around my arms and began to shiver violently before
You happened to look and see the tunnels all around me
Running into the dark underground
All the subways around create a great sound
To my motion fatigue farewell
With your ear to a seashell
You can hear the waves in underwater caves
Em C D G(standard chord)
As if you actually were inside a saltwater room
CHORUS*
Time together is just never quite enough
When you and I are alone, Ive never felt so at home
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
We need time, only time
When we’re apart whatever are you thinking of?
If this is what I call home, Ive never felt so alone
So tell me darling, do you wish weed fall in love?
All the time, all the time
VERSE 2
Can you believe that the crew has gone, and wouldnt let me sign on?
All my islands have sunk in the deep, so I can hardly relax or even oversleep
I feel as if I were home some nights, when we count all the ship lights
I guess Ill never know, why sparrows love the snow
E C D G(standard chord)
Well turn off all of the lights, and set this ballroom aglow
So tell me darling, do you wish weed fall in love?
All the time
CHORUS
Time together is just never quite enough
When you and I are alone, Ive never felt so at home
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
We need time, only time
When were apart whatever are you thinking of?
If this is what I call home, Ive never felt so alone
So tell me darling, do you wish weed fall in love?
All the time, all the time
OUTRO
Time together is just never quite enough
When were apart whatever are you thinking of?
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
So tell me darling do you wish weed fall in love?
All the time
