C Am
the sea said goodbye to the shore so the sun wouldn’t notice
Fmaj7 C
the seaweed that wrapped its arms around you

C Am
the carpet on my cheek feels like the fall grass
Fmaj7 C
and i run through the tall trees with your hand chasing me

C Am
the books that i keep by my bed are full of your stories
Fmaj7 C
that i drew up from a little dream of mine a little nightmare of yours

C Am
to be asked to take this plunge to forgive and forget
Fmaj7 C
and be the better man , to be a better man , to be a better man

C Am Fmaj7 C
so love me mother , and love me father , and love my sister as well

C Am
the cat’s silhouette as big as a monster
Fmaj7 C
in this concrete jungle with street lights hanging their heads

C Am
so make all your last demands for i will forsake you
Fmaj7 C
and i’ll meet your eyes for the very first time , for the very last

C Am Fmaj7 C
so love me mother , and love me father , and love my sister as well

C Am Fmaj7 C
so love me mother , and love me father , and love my brother as well

C Am Fmaj7 C
