[Intro]
G Bm F#m D
[Verse]
G Bm F#m D
My bloodhound
G
baying at your door
Bm F#m D
The wild grass
G Bm F#m
overlapping your front porch
D G Bm F#m
The sound of scratching claws trimmed short
D G Bm F#m D
Keeps you buttoned up on the floor
A D G
And you're reduced to howls
A D G
And I'm not there to drown them out
A D G
Swallowing up the room
Letting yourself down
[Verse 2]
G Bm F#m D
Darling I'll be fine (The hiccups my mouth emits)
G Bm F#m D
I've left behind my calluses (This solicitude I won't forgive)
G Bm F#m D
I'll be whatever you like (All of this inside my head)
G Bm F#m D
Your seafaring love to the shore
[Verse 3]
G Bm D
When the tide rolled in there was nothing left
G Bm D
But an albatross hanging from my neck
G Bm D
And just as you could not contain the sea
G Bm D
You could not contain me
