Biography:
Said the Whale is a Canadian band formed in 2007 as a collaboration between songwriters Ben Worcester and Tyler Bancroft. The pair’s debut EP, Taking Abalonia, featured sunny west coast indie pop, with breezy harmonies, shimmering guitars and lyrical tributes to their home city of Vancouver, “nodding at times to the sea shanties of Neutral Milk Hotel and at others to the boat-shoe-gazing of Vampire Weekend” said The National Post. In 2008, the album was re-released as Howe Sounds/Talking Abalonia

Be sure to be quiet
In the middle of the night,
Fm
When the dogs are asleep and
The wind is high.
C
Grab your things and wait
E
by the window I'll meet you by the window.
[Pre-Chorus]
F
And we'll make no tracks
G
In the snow.
C G/B
We'll follow the lakes to where the
Am F
Cold north wind will
G
Cover for us both
C
So we can hide.
[Chorus]
F G
And if we survive
C G/B
The cold, and the night
Am F
In the dead of winter,
G C
We'll watch the sun rise on the ice together
F G
And if we are to die tonight,
C G/B
In your arms I'll lay,
Am F
And it never felt better
G C
And at least we will leave here together.
La da da da... [F G C C/B Am - F G C] (2x)
[Verse]
F G
In the still of the night
C G/B
My bare hands, your pale skin
Am F
Reflected in the moonlight.
G
And we pray and we pray
C
To the wind.
F G
And your hand in my hand's
C G/B
As soft as the sunlight
Am F
When the day begins,
G
And as cold as the night
C
Blows in.
[Chorus]
F G
And if we are to die tonight,
C G/B
I pray with my heart
Am F
That you will love me forever
G
And at least we will leave here
C
Together.
