"Show me how you do that trick The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it And I promise you I promise that I'll run
away with you I'll run away with you"
(Repeat Intro Part 2)
Verse 2:
Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you"

Dancing in the deepest oceans Twisting in the water You're just like a dream
(Repeat Intro Part 2)
Interlude: (Repeat Bass Intro x4)
Verse 3:
(Bass only)
Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
(Guitars and drums come in here)
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me
Repeat Chorus end on A
This song is pretty easy. The bass and first guitar stay the same throughout the
whole song except the chorus, and the little intro solo that the second guitar
does sounds like what I have here, which is from a tab of the original, so enjoy!
