[Verse]
D Dadd9 Bm7 G
D        Dadd9
   This is erosion
Bm7            G
   Grinding up rocks with your molars
D             Dadd9           Bm7
   A big fish swims past your rod
                   G                D
   You can’t catch it, it’s far too fast
 
(D) Dadd9 Bm7 G
 
D            Dadd9           Bm7
   Deep hook marks in rubber lips
              G
   I see your eyes in the flowers
D              Dadd9          Bm7
   I’ll pick a bunch for your room
             G
   Green and blue to match your pictures
 
[Chorus]
Bm7    G                 D
   You looked so good in green
     A           Bm7
   I hope you’re well
           G                 D
   And you look so good with him
           A            Bm7
   And I’m proud of you still
     G                 D
   I miss your perfect teeth
     A       Bm7
   I was too blunt
     G                D
   I hope you feel happy
          A     Bm7
   That’s all I want
G  D
           A     Bm7
   That’s all I want
 
[Verse]
Bm D A
D              G
   Mess in the kitchen
 
Bm       Bm7
   I was so disappointed
D            A         Bm
   I guess I got to my head
                 Bm7                 D
   And I was too young to understand it
 
A Bm Bm7
D           A                 Bm
   I get it now that it’s too late
           Bm7
   I never stopped feeling guilty
D           A             Bm
   I’m over it, I promise that
                Bm7               D
   I just gotta sing it out of me
 
[Chorus]
       G                 D
   You looked so good in green
     A           Bm7
   I hope you’re well
           G                 D
   And you look so good with him
        A               Bm7
   And I’m proud of you still
        G          D
   Take care of my shirt
   A        Bm7
   Warm and red
     G                   D
   I hope you think of me
   A              Bm7
   Still as your friend
     G                 D
   I hope you love yourself
        A       Bm7
   Your body an heart
     G                D
   I hope you feel happy
          A     Bm7
   That’s all I want
G  D

   That’s all I want
G  D  A  Bm7
