[G6] I'm [D(9)]waking from a dr[Em]eam[Em(9)]
[G6] The [D(9)]neighborhood is gr[Em]een[Em(9)]
[G6] All the so[D(9)]unds I've missed, all the[Em] years[Em(9)]

[G6] Like [D(9)]water on a[Em] stain[Em(9)]

[G] Touch me,[D] I'm so[Am] beautiful[Am]
Rub your h[G]ands across my h[D]ead just like[Am] this[Am]
Come with m[G]e now, it's not wor[D]th it if you d[Am]on't[Am]
Are you h[G]iding? I [D]am h[C(9)]iding[C(9)]

[Em][ins[Em(9)]trument[G6]al][D(9)][Em][Em(9)]
Cypress moon, bald in June
Like the granite in a stream
Swamp Ophelia, I'm torn down
Let your waters let me drown
Touch me, I'm so beautiful
Rub your hands across my head just like this
Come with me, now it's not worth it if you don't
Are you crying? I am crying

[Em][distorted electric guitar, drums, more distorted guitar, mumbling
"trying to hold it like rain in a river" over and over...]

Jump, jump, jump so high, watch me let you down
If I stumble, I will stumble; if I fall, I will fall
Trying to hold it like rain in a river, everything is getting bigger
Better this won't last forever
Touch me, fall
