Verse 1
D Em7 D Em7
I lie below, you float above
D Em7 D Em7
In the pretty white ships that I've been dreaming of
G A7sus4
And I'd like to swim beside you
G A7sus4
Getting dizzy in your wake
G A7sus4
Getting close enough to touch you
G A7sus4 D
Getting brave enough to take you into my arms
Cadd9 G/B
And bring you down to be with me
Chorus 1
G(2) D/F# Em7 A7 D Dsus4 D Dsus2
But I can't do that thing anymore
G(2) D/F# Em7 Bsus2 Bm
I can't be the thing I was before
G(2) D/F# Em7 A7 D
Maybe I am better off alone
G A7 G A7
Because I crush everything and I crush everything
G A7 D
and I crush everything
Intro Riff
Verse 2
D Em7 D Em7
My body's strong, but my will is weak
D Em7 D Em7
I got pretty nice arms, but I hate my beak
G A7sus4
And the dolphins are all phonies
G A7sus4
They seem nice enough at first
G A7sus4
But they pretend to be your friend
G A7sus4 D
Until they see you at your worst and then they leave you
Cadd9 G/B
Without a word they swim away
Chorus 2
G(2) D/F# Em7 A7 D Dsus4 D Dsus2
So I can't do that thing anymore
G(2) D/F# Em7 Bsus2 Bm
I can't be the thing I was before
G(2) D/F# Em7 A7 D
Maybe I am better off alone
G A7 G A7
Because I crush everything and I crush everything
G A7 Bm
and I crush everything
Bridge
Bm F#m Em G(2)
And every thing I want I take
Bm F#m Em G(2)
And every thing I love I break
Bm F#m Em G(2)
And every night I lie awake
Intro Riff
Verse 3
D Em7 D Em7
Did the stars come out? Did the world spin round?
D Em7 Em7
Does it matter that much when you're ten miles down?
G A7sus4
In the light that filters down
G A7sus4
Into my giant yellow eye
G A7sus4
I can see the sails unfolding
G A7sus4 D
Stretching white against the sky and I forgive them
Cadd9 G/B
I forgive and I let go
Chorus 3
G(2) D/F# Em7 A7 D Dsus4 D Dsus2
Cause I can't do that thing anymore
G(2) D/F# Em7 Bsus2 Bm
I can't be the thing I was before
G(2) D/F# Em7 A7 D
Maybe I am better off alone
G A7 G A7
Because I crush everything and I crush everything
G A7 D
and I crush everything
