Oceanic Feeling

It's a [G]blue day

We could jump [F]bully

When I [G]hit that water

When it [F]holds me

I think about my [G]father

Doing the [F]same thing

When he was a [G]boy

When he was a [F]boy

 

It's a [G]blue day

We can go [F]fishing

You'll [G]catch the big one

 

[G]Sliding the knife under the skin

Grateful for this [F]offering

And all the [G]living things

Under the [F]sun

Under the [G]sun [F]

 

Little [G]brother

I think you're an [F]angel

I see your [G]silver chain, levitate

When you keep [F]flipping

Baby boy you're [G]super cool,

I know you're scared, so was I

But all will be

revealed in [F]time (Time, time)

[G]Oh, look, the rays are in the bay now

Can you hear the waves

and the cicadas [F]all around?

 

[G]Rays so hot, it's a summer body

 

[F]Don't look down

 

[G]In the future

If I have a [F]daughter

Will [G]she have my waist?

Or my [F]widow's peak?

My [F]dreamer's

disposition or my [G]wicked streak? [F]

 

Will she [G]swear to die with her lover?

Laugh with the stars like her [F]mother,

When she was a [G]girl, when she was a [F]girl?

[G] [F]

[G]Now the cherry black

lipstick's gathering dust in a [F]drawer

I don't [C]need her [G]anymore

Cause I got this [F]power

Just had to [G]breathe

I'm [F]doin it

Just had to [G]breathe

I'm [F]doin it

I just had to [G]breathe

I'm [F]doing it

I just had to [G]breathe

I'm [F]doing it

Just had to [G]breathe [F]

 

[Bm]Was enlightenment [A]found?

No, but I'm [Bm]trying,

taking it one [D]year at a time

[Bm]Oh, oh, can you hear the [A]sound?

It's shimmering [Bm]higher

On the beach, I'm [D]building a pyre

(you sew a boat in by the tide)

[Bm]I, I, I know you'll show me [A]how I'll

know when it's [Bm]time to take off my [Gmaj7]ropes

And step into the [D]choir
