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