[Verse 1]
Em D C
I know what I want, I know what I want
I want a long life, all kidding aside
Em D C
the rules are the same, as they always were
present's a thought and a piece of mind
Em D C
and i want my girl in my arms when I sleep
Em
breathing in her dreams near the air I breathe
D C
and I wanna dream
[Chorus]
Em D
right down to the minute
C
right down to the second, I can feel my every breath unfold
Em D
right down to the minute
C
right down to the second
Em D C
I'm down to the seconds
[Verse 2]
Em D C
steady little boat, steady little boat
take me to the shore, take me to the shore
Em D C
take me back home all the way to where I'm from
to the banks of the Illinois
Em D C
show me the house I was raised in
and the woods where I used to play
Em D C
steady little boat take me home cause I'm far away
[Chorus]
Em D
right down to the minute
C
right down to the second, I can feel my every breath unfold
Em D
right down to the minute
C
right down to the second
Em D
right down to the minute
C
right down to the second, I can feel my every breath unfold
Em D
right down to the minute
C
right down to the second
and I'm down to the seconds
[Bridge]
Em D C
out on this tiny planet, under a bright yellow sun
on an island east of an island
Em D C
just past the bridge and tunnels, I feel the ground under my shoes
on a street between a couple of avenues
Em D C
and I'll lose it
[Chorus]
Em D
right down to the minute
C
right down to the second, I can feel my every breath unfold
Em D
right down to the minute
C
right down to the second
Em D
right down to the minute
C
right down to the second, I can feel my every breath unfold
Em D
right down to the minute
C
right down to the second
[Outro]
Em D C
right down to the minute
Em D C
right down to the second
Em D C
I'm down to the seconds
