1. The sea said goodbye to the shore
Ami
so the sun wouldn't notice
Fmaj7
The seaweed that wrapped
C
its arms around you
2. The carpet on my cheek feels
like the fall grass
and I run through the tall trees
with your hand chasing me
3. The books that I keep by my bed
are full of your stories
That I drew up from a little dream of mine
a little nightmare of yours
4. To be asked to take this plunge
to forgive and forget
and be the better man,
to be a better man, to be a better man

R: So love me mother, and love me father,
Fmaj7 C
and love my sister as well

The cat's silhouette as big as a monster
Fmaj7
In this concrete jungle with street lights
C
hanging their heads
5. So make all your last demands
for I will forsake you
and I'll meet your eyes
for the very first time, for the very last
R: So love me mother, and love me father,
and love my sister as well (4x)

6. I met a man today and he smiled back at me
Fmaj7
Now there are thoughts like these
that keep me on my feet
C
that keep me on my feet
