[Verse 1]
C#
All clear
C#
Good Lord
C#
Did well to be ignored
C#
Your falling temperature
C#
Like cooling kisses
C#
All through your head
C#
C# made-up water's edge
C#
C# summer gone on tabling fabled blisses
[Chorus]
F# G# C#
And I'd love to see you waving
F# G# C#
From the far side of the swim
F# G# C# F# G# C#
Gathered in by a waiting troop of the open-hearted
F# G# C#
Where colour field meets canvas
Where colour field meets canvas
F# G# C#
And the picture breathes you in
F# G# C# A#m C#
Where all the stories meant for you have already started
F# D#m
[Bridge]
C#
Bright girl, dead town
C#
Walking tall but blown around
C#
The secret chainmail gown of your father's blessing
C#
Bright girl, dead town
C#
Open mouths for miles around
C#
I still see you keeping those dough boys guessing
[Chorus]
F# G# C#
And I'd love to see you waving
F# G# C#
From the far side of the swim
F# G# C# F# G# C#
Gathered in by a waiting troop of the open-hearted
F# G# C#
Where colour field meets canvas
F# G# C#
And the picture breathes you in
F# G# C# A#m C#
Where all the stories meant for you have already started
F# D#m
