When it says "don't be so amazing" and "so pleased with a daydream" it might
go to D7 or it might just stay on Am I'm not really sure.
G Bm
I keep floating down the river but the ocean never comes
G C
Since the operation I heard you're breathing just for one
Am D7
Now everything is imaginary, especially what you love
Am C G
You left another message said it's done, It's done
G Bm
When I hear beautiful music it's always from another time
G C
Old friends I never visit, I remember what they're like
Am D7
Standing on a doorstep full of nervous butterflies
Am C G
Waiting to be asked to come inside Just come inside
Am D7
But I keep go-o-o-o-oing out
Bm Am C
I can't sleep next to a stranger when I'm coming down
B7 C G
It's 8 a.m. my heart is beating too loud, Too loud

D7 Am B7
C
Don't be-e-e-e so ama-a-a-azing or I'll miss you too much
B7 C
I felt something that I had never touched
G Bm
Everything gets smaller now the further that I go
G C
Towards the mouth and the reunion of the Known and the Unknown
Am D7
Consider yourself lucky if you think of it as home
Am
G
You can move mountains with your misery if you don't, If you don't
G Bm
It comes to me in fragments, even those still split in two
G C
Under the leaves of that old Lime Tree I stood examining the fruit
Am D7
Some were ripe and some were rotten, I felt nauseous with the truth
Am C G
There will never be a time more opportune
Am D7
So I just won't be late
Bm Am C
The window closes, shock rolls over in a tidal wave
B7 C G
And all the color drains out of the frame
D7 Am B7 C
So pleased with a daydream that now living is no good
B7 C
I took off my shoes and walked into the woods
B7 C G
I felt lost and found with every step I took
