intro

G6 D(9) Em Em(9)
I'm waking from a dream
G6 D(9) Em Em(9)
The neighborhood is green
G6 D(9) Em Em(9)
All the sounds I've missed, all the years
G6 D(9) Em Em(9)
Come down to wedding death and fear
G6 D(9) Em Em(9)
And all I've heard has been in vain
G6 D(9) Em Em(9)
Like water on a stain
Touch me, I'm so beautiful 
Rub your hands across my head just like this 
Come with me now, it's not worth it if you don't 
G D C(9) C(9)
Are you hiding? I am hiding
Em Em(9) G6 D(9) Em Em(9)

instrumental

Cypress moon, bald in June
Like the granite in a stream
Swamp Ophelia, I'm torn down
Let your waters let me drown
Touch me, I'm so beautiful
Rub your hands across my head just like this
Come with me, now it's not worth it if you don't
Are you crying? I am crying

DOUBLE TIME

string break; not sure about the chords

G D - C [hold] G D - C [hold]

more strings

Jump, jump, jump so high, watch me let you down 
If I stumble, I will stumble; if I fall, I will fall
Trying to hold it like rain in a river, everything is getting bigger
Better this won't last forever
Touch me, fall; touch me, fall

instrumental

Jump, jump, jump so high, watch me let you down
If I stumble, I will stumble; if I fall, I will fall
Trying to hold it like rain in a river, everything is getting bigger
Better this won't last forever
Touch me, fall
