Verse 1

A Bm

Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick

E D

The one that makes me scream, she said

A Bm

The one that makes me laugh, she said

E D

And threw her arms around my neck

Chorus

A

You, soft and only

Bm

You, lost and lonely

E D

You, strange as angels

A Bm E D

Dancing in the deepest oceans, twisting in the water

A

You’re just like a dream

Verse 2

A Bm

Spinning on that dizzy edge

E D

I kissed her face and kissed her head

A Bm

And dreamed of all the different ways

I had to make her glow
