Intro: G
G D
You're my water, you're my wine
C G
You're my whiskey from time to time
D
You're the hunger on my bones
C G
Al the nights I sleep alone
C
Sweet intoxication
G
When your words wash over me
C D
Whether not your lips move
G
You speak to me
G D
Like an ocean without waves
C G
You're the movement that I crave
D
And in that motion I long to drown
Am D G
And be lost never to be found
D-G-D-C-G
G D
You're my water, you're my wine
C G
You're my whiskey from time to time
