D		A	D		AWell this is just a simple song

D		A	D		ATo say what you've done

D		A	D		AI told you about all those fears

D			A	DAnd the way they did run

		  A	        GYour show must be strong


And you feel like an ocean

			       D	A D	A DThey'd want by the sun



D		A	D		AWhen I was just 9 years old

D		A	D		AI swear that I dreamt

D		A	D		AYour face on a football field

D		A	DAnd a kiss that I kept

	    A   GUnder my vest

							        D	A DApart from everything but the heart in my chest




Bm		  D				 GI know that things can really get rough


When you go it alone

Bm           D			        GDon't go thinking you gotta be tough


To play like a stone

Bm                         D			         GCould be there's nothing else in our lives


So critical


As this little hole




D		A	D		AMy life in an upturned boat

D		A	D		AMarooned on a cliff

D		A	D		AYou brought me a great big flood

D		A	DAnd you gave me a lift

	     A	GTo care, what a gift


And you tell me with your tongue


And you're breath was in my lungs

				   BmAnd you float over the rift




		  D				 GI know that things can really get rough


When you go it alone

Bm	       D                                   GDon't go thinking you gotta be tough


To play like a stone

Bm			  D				GCould be there's nothing else in our lives


So critical


As this little hole
