Tom : Am
Am
You're swimmin' in the daydream
G
And I'm just watchin' from the bank
Am
You're covered in sun and I forgot my camera
G
Wishin' it was real
F G
And I try and keep you in my eyes
F G
Permanently save it into my mind
Am G
C F (2x)
[Verse 2]
Am G
From here the world's spinnin and I swear I'd drown
Just to have you
Am G
Come hover over me, speak somethin' close to me
Oh, it's gettin' late
F G
So I look for you when I sleep
F G
But it's no good 'cause dreams don't keep
Am G
C F (2x)
[Verse 3]
Am
And April was the last time I think I saw you
G
You were carryin' lightnin'
Am
The way you walked into the room
G
If I was a flower I would've opened up and bloomed
F G
I say I don't care, but I'm a liar
F G
Look how easy a heart can catch on fire
Am G
C F (2x)
F G
I say I don't care, but I'm a liar
F G
Look how easy a heart can catch on fire
