every place that I have been through,

C G C F C
that I'm ever gonna do.
G
I tell the earth, "thanks for the hair,
C G C F C
thanks for the skin, thanks for the bone",
G
Though I now slowly give it back
C G C F C
I still appreciate the loan.
G
Just tell me that you like me
C G C F C
in the same sentence as a mountain side.
G
'Cause it would be
C G C F C
such a relief to be objectified.
G
'Cause who says it's so important
C G C F C
to sort through these thoughts of ours.
G
Maybe be that's why we love to try
C G C F C
to see ourselves from the outside
G C G C F C
In photographs and videos and diaries and mirrors.
G
'Cause it would be
C G C F C
such a relief to be objectified.
G
And the closest that I ever got
C
still seems to leave a lot to go,
F
but the horizon seems to be a place
C
that nobody can know.
G
Looking forth and looking back,
C
our vision can't extend
F
beyond the quaint vanishing points
C
our bodies' recommend,
G
and I'll help you move some furniture
C
somewhere it's never been before,
F
but the room's so small the dresser drawer
C
won't let us get back out the door.
G
Just tell me that you like me
C
in the same sentence as the building.
F C
It would be such a relief to see
G C F C G C F C
I'm just a natural thing.
G
We're only boats,
C G C F C
And the boats are only empty
G
And you can't blame an empty boat
C G C F C
that's on a river to the sea.
G
You can't blame a billion boats
C G C F C
without a sail, without a sailor.
G
And that's how we look
C G C F C
in photographs, and diaries, and mirrors.
G
And the plants turn into ants,
C
and the ants turn into plants,
F
And children are clumsy people,
C
and old people are rotting Children.
G
And I still don't have a cell phone,
C
but this sea shell gets Reception,
F
And the ocean won't stop calling,
C
and I want a restraining order.
G
Just tell me that you like me
C
in the same sentence as a building.
F C
It would be such a relief to see
G C F C
I'm just a natural thing.
G C F C
We're just a natural thing.
G C F C G
Just like anything.
