Intro
G# Cm Gm D#
[Verse]
G# Cm Gm D#
My bloodhound
G#
baying at your door
Cm Gm D#
The wild grass
G# Cm Gm
overlapping your front porch
D# G# Cm Gm
The sound of scratching claws trimmed short
D# G# Cm Gm D#
Keeps you buttoned up on the floor
A# D# G#
And you're reduced to howls
A# D# G#
And I'm not there to drown them out
A# D# G#
Swallowing up the room
Letting yourself down
[Verse 2]
G# Cm Gm D#
Darling I'll be fine (The hiccups my mouth emits)
G# Cm Gm D#
I've left behind my calluses (This solicitude I won't forgive)
G# Cm Gm D#
I'll be whatever you like (All of this inside my head)
G# Cm Gm D#
Your seafaring love to the shore
[Verse 3]
G# Cm D#
When the tide rolled in there was nothing left
G# Cm D#
But an albatross hanging from my neck
G# Cm D#
And just as you could not contain the sea
G# Cm D#
You could not contain me
