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