Intro
Am C F G
[Verse]
Am C
I plan strength
F C G
I topple sideways clearing my bench
Am C
I heard my name
F C G
Trembling tall trees searching the skies
Am C
And when I came
F C G
I swam from the headlands carrying torches
Am C
You’re the same
F C G
Under the shell now whispering secrets
[Chorus]
Am C G F
I once knew a silver city
C G Am
Down by the water’s edge
Am C G F
Help me find my coral footprints
C G Am
The swamps have swallowed to their depths
Am C G F
I’ll show you towers turned of oak wood
C G Am
The great white horses home
Am C G F
I hope that you don’t turn the light on
C G Am
I hope that I’m not alone
[Interlude]
Am C F G
Ayayayayay ayayayayay ayayayay ayay ayay ay [x4]
Am C
I plan change
F C G
I wake from the inside, sleep on the train
Am C
Sink my teeth
F C G
Forget my manners, blame it on me
Am C
I write it down
F C Am
Capture nothing but swollen clouds
Am C
And turn your head
F C Am
Think you don’t see me splashing around
[Chorus]
Am C G F
I once knew a silver city
C G Am
Down by the water’s edge
Am C G F
Help me find my coral footprints
C G Am
The swamps have swallowed to their depths
Am C G F
I’ll show you towers turned of oak wood
C G Am
The great white horses home
Am C G F*
I hope that you don’t turn the light on
N.C
I hope that I’m not alone
[outro]
Am C F G
Ayayayayay ayayayayay ayayayay ayay ayay ay [x4]
