Taken years ago, Turned around backward so the windshield shows.
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
Every streetlight reveals the
Gadd9 Cadd9 A9
picture in reverse.
Cadd9 D
Still, it's so much clearer.
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
I forgot my shirt at the
Gadd9 Cadd9 A9
water's edge. The moon is low to-
Cadd9 D
-night.

[Verse 2]
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
Nightswimming
Gadd9 Cadd9 A9
deserves a quiet night
Cadd9 D
I'm not sure all these people under-
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
-stand. It's not like years
Gadd9 Cadd9 A9
ago. The fear of getting
Cadd9 D
caught, Of recklessness and
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
water. They cannot see me
Gadd9 Cadd9 A9
naked. These things, they go
Cadd9 D
away, Replaced by every-
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
-day. Nightswimming,
Gadd9 Cadd9 A9
remembering that night.
Cadd9 D
September's coming soon
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
I'm pining for the moon. And
Gadd9 Cadd9 A9
what if there were two, Side
Cadd9 D
by side in orbit, Around the fairest
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
sun? That bright, tight for--
Gadd9 Cadd9 A9
--ever drum Could not describe night--
Cadd9 D
--swimming.
[Verse 3]
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
You, I thought I knew you
Gadd9 Cadd9 A9
You, I cannot judge
Cadd9 D
You, I thought you knew me. This one
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
laughing quietly Under-
Gadd9 Cadd9 A9
-neath my breath. Night-
Cadd9 D
-swimming

[Outro]
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
The photograph reflects every
Gadd9 Cadd9 A9
streetlight a reminder. Night-
Cadd9 D
-swimming de-serves a quiet
Gadd9 Cadd9 D
night.
G C9 A9*
Desserves a quiet
C9 D
night.

capo 1 makes sense with this tab
0

On the tab that A9 should be shown that the 5th, 3rd, 2nd and 1st string should show as played open (0 on the string)
