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