[C][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]Well this is jus[G]t a s[C]imple song[G]
[C]To say wha[G]t you don[C]e[G]
[C]I told you[G] about all[C] those fea[G]rs
[C]And away the[G]y did run[C]
You sure [G]must be [F]strong
And you feel like an ocean
Being warmed by the [C]sun[G][C][G]

[Verse 2]
[C]When I was[G] just nin[C]e years old[G]
[C]I swear that I d[G]rea[C]med[G]
[C]Your face on [G]a foo[C]tball fie[G]ld
[C]And a kiss that I k[G]ept[C]
Un[G]der my [F]vest
Apart from everything
But the heart in my [C]chest[G][C][G]

[Chorus 1]
[Am]I know that thin[C]gs can really get roug[F]h
when you go it [G]alone
[Am]Don't go think[C]ing you gotta be tough[F],
to play like a [G]stone
[Am]Could be there's nothi[C]ng else
in our [F]lives so criti[G]cal
[F]As this little hole

[Verse 3]
[C]My life in an [G]up [C]turned boa[G]t,
[C]marooned on [G]a cli[C]ff[G]
[C]You brought me a g[G]rea[C]t big floo[G]d
[C]And you gave me [G]a lif[C]t
To [G]care, what [F]a gift
You tell me with your tongue
And your breath was in my lungs

[Chorus 2]
And you float over the
[Am](rift) I know that [C]things can really get [F]rough
when you go it [G]alone
[Am]Don't go think[C]ing you gotta be tough[F],
to play like a [G]stone
[Am]Could be there's nothi[C]ng else
in our [F]lives so criti[G]cal
[F]As this little hole

[C]And away the[G]y did run[C]
You sure [G]must be [F]strong
And you feel like an ocean
Being warmed by the [C]sun[G][C][G]
[C][G][C][G]

[Bridge 1]
[Am]Remember walki[C]ng a mile to your hous[F]e,
a glow in the [G]dark
[Am]I made a fumbl[C]in' play for your hear[F]t
and the extra, the [G]spark
[Am]You wore a charm[C] in the chain
that I [F]stole especially for [G]you
[Am]Love's such a deli[C]cate thing that we do,[F]
we've nothing to [G]prove
[F]Which I never kne[F]w[C]
