1. Forgive me if I seem a little careless

But your voice picks me up and
C#m B
Rescues, rescues, rescues me
F#m C#m
And every time I try to see
A B
I am losing sight of what is really there
Chorus:
E
I just wanna feel like a ship on the ocean
B
Flying like a bird, floating in the air
C#m
We don’t need to chase any destination, baby
A B
We can end up anywhere
E
You can be the anchor that keeps me grounded
B
You can be my song, and my summer breeze
C#m
We don’t need to chase any destination, baby
A
Don’t care where we’re going
B E
As long as you are next to me
