More chords by Ben Folds

Genre: rock, pop, folk


[ACAPELLA INTRO]
N.C.
Tossed about the ocean
N.C.
In boats built for a lake
N.C.
Life is but a dream
N.C.
A stream of beautiful mistakes

[INSTRUMENTAL INTRO]
C

[VERSE 1]
C
On a quiet lake
C
So far from the shore
C
We had paddled for an hour
C
Back would be way more
C
She said that's just great, oh
C
What is wrong with you?
C
You wait 'til we're trapped in a boat
C
To tell me we're through

[CHORUS 1]
Dm
But in the safest dark
C
It had seemed so clear
Dm
Tell the truth and let the daylight shine
C
Watch the shadows disappear
Dm
And then the morning came
Fm6
And I couldn't bring myself to say it

[VERSE 2]
C
So we went through all seasons
C
Wrapped in safety vests
C
The bright red sun it seared my soul
C
Her eyes, they burned the rest
C
You must really hate me
C
To have planned it out like this
C
You can't get us back to the shore
C
I'm not rowing shit

[CHORUS 2]
