Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G][Gsus2][D][G][Gsus2][D][Gsus2][Dm][D][G][Gsus2]
[Dm]Ways[G] that big will[Dm] sink a ship this size[Gsus2]
[Dm]The [G]memories of the [Dm]friends we lose
[Gm]Stains our days [Dm]like a bruise
In a [Gsus2]storm like this,
this [Dm]ves sel will [Gsus2]cap size
[Dm]My l[Gm]ove ha[Gsus2]s the pretti[Dm]est head,
cause
[Gsus2]Je sus sleeps between her le[Dm]gs
[Em]On the holiest of ni[Am]ghts,
when the angel sleeps all [C]tight
I still wake to [G]watch [Gsus2]her breat[D]hing
[Em]On the coldest morning aft[Am]er,
I hear the sound of laughter
[C]From people who can't
be as happy as me
[G]Jessica acts as my harbour,
with[Bm]in her arms is my haven
She's the [Em]thanks that I'm worthy and able,
so I [C]kiss her from her toes to her [Dm]navel
[D]Her [G]hair, acts as a beacon,
draw[Bm]ing me away from the harlots and their w[Em]anton ways
And [C]all the lonely [Dm]people [D]greet [Gsus2]her
[Dm][Gsus2][Dm][Gsus2][Dm][Gsus2]
[Dm]Oh
[G]Christ alone [Dm]know how
he made [G]those lips
[Dm]A de[G]ity worked all[Dm] the time
I [G]see his likeness
[Dm]in her eyes
And [G]as we [Gsus2]sail towa[Dm]rds the
calm [Gsus2]I see[Dm]
[G]Fifty thou[Gsus2]sand beads of[Dm] sweat
run[G]ning down her long [Dm]white legs
[Em]On the sunniest of s[Am]ummers,
when I wake from winter slum[C]ber
I smell the schoolgirls' [G]hair as
[Gsus2]they go bath[D]ing and
[Em]Sin will lose the one I love,
[A]Jessie's [Am]hair is long enough
To [C]wipe away the fact that
she is sixteen [Dm]years old
[C]Jes[G]sica acts in a harmony with
[Bm]in her arms when I need them
She's [Em]a big, satin -worthy neighbor,
so I [C]kiss her from her toes to her [D]navel
Her [G]hair, it acts as a beaker,
draw[Bm]ing me away from the harlots and their w[Em]anton ways
And [C]all the lonely [D]people need her,
[G]just go access my harbour
Living [Bm]in her arms is my haven,
she [Em]thinks that I'm widely enabled
So I [C]kiss her from the toes to her [D]navel
Her [G]hair, it acts as a beaker,
[Gsus2]drawing m[Bm]e away from the harlots and their wanton wa[Em]ys
Their [C]wanton ways
[D]So
