[Intro]
 
F#m C#m
F#m C#m
 
[Verse 1]
 
        G#m    C#m       B     A
You keep telling me I'm beautiful
       E                 G#
But I feel a little less so each time
     G#m C#m     B    A
Your love is so colorful
    E              G#
It flashes like a neon sign
      G#m C#m        B      A
But I finally drove out where
    E                  G#
The sky is dark enough to see stars
      G#m  C#m        B     A
And I found I missed no one
      E                           G#
Just listening to the swishing of distant cars
 
[Chorus]
 
     C#m           E
So I hope I never see
   G#m G#   A
The ocean again
C#m                    E
Pushing and pulling at me
        G#m        G#      A
As I go deeper and deeper in
        C#m              E
Til I'm so far from my shore
      G#m           G#        A
So far from what I came here for
           C#m
I let you surround me
   E
I let you drown me
G#m           A     Baug
Out with your din
N.C.
And then I learned how to swim
C#m           E
   Oh oh oh oh
 A            B
   Oh oh oh oh
C#m           E
   Oh oh oh oh
 A            B
   Oh oh oh oh
 
[Verse 2]
 
        G#m C#m  B       A
I was floating above myself
 E                    G#
Watching her do just what you wanted
G#m C#m        B       A
Poor little friendly ghost
E                        G#
Wondering why her whole house feels haunted
  G#m  C#m            B      A
I told myself I was strong enough
     E                G#
That I had plenty of blood to give
         G#m C#m           B   A
And each elbow cradled a needle
     E                          G#
But listless and faint ain't no way to live
 
[Chorus]
 
     C#m           E
So I hope I never see
   G#m G#   A
The ocean again
C#m                    E
Pushing and pulling at me
        G#m        G#      A
As I go deeper and deeper in
        C#m              E
Til I'm so far from my shore
      G#m           G#        A
So far from what I came here for
           C#m
I let you surround me
   E
I let you drown me
G#m           A     Baug
Out with your din
N.C.
And then I learned how to swim
C#m           E
   Oh oh oh oh
 A            B
   Oh oh oh oh
C#m           E
   Oh oh oh oh
 A            B
   Oh oh oh oh
 
[Outro]
 
          G#m    C#m       B     A
You keep telling me I'm beautiful
       E                 G#
But I feel a little less so each time
     G#m C#m     B    A
Your love is so colorful
    E              G#
It flashes like a neon sign
      G#m C#m        B      A
But I finally drove out where
    E                  G#
The sky is dark enough to see stars
      G#m  C#m        B     A
And I found I missed no one
      E                           G#
Just listening to the swishing of distant cars
