   /Heather Nova / I think this song is about a girl in love with a person
  /My Fidelity  /  who loves someone else. She tries to tell this boy that
 /Glowstars    /   he can't have the other girl, and that she loves him
/_____________/    no matter what. A phenomenal song - and guitar play too.

1st VERSE:
Am
  Is it something ritual

  I'm caught in, can't break the spell?
       G
  Is it moving in my body

  Is it biological?
Am
  I gotta hand it to you

  You've got one heart ten times divided.
G
  Did you cut yourself in pieces

  To get them all inside?



CHORUS:
     Am
  You dream about her, can't you see?
G
  She's only shining bright 'cause she's so out of reach.
     Am
  You dream about the seven seas
       G
  While I'm staying home each night,
  F              G
  Making love to my fidelity.



2nd VERSE:
Am
  I'm rocking in my bed

  I can't talk can't think can't sleep.
     G
  And nothing's jumping fences,

  I only count what I cannot keep.
Am
  I lick my wounds,

  I chase my instinct like a cat.
G
  I don't know how I got so good

  Or why my heart's a trap



CHORUS:
      Am
  You dream about her, can't you see?
G
  She's only shining bright 'cause she's so out of reach.
     Am
  You dream about the seven seas
       G
  While I'm staying home each night,
  F              G
  Making love to my fidelity.



BRIDGE (each chords is strum a single time):
F                G
  Why I love you, why I love you
Am*
  Why I love you I don't know,
F               G               Am*
  Why I love you, why I love you, why.
F                  G      Am*
  Taking sides with my enemy
F                G      Am*  F G F
  Making love to my fidelity

   Am
You dream about the seven seas
G
While I'm staying home each night,
F              G
Making love to my fidelity.



3rd VERSE:
Am
  I'm landlocked, stuck in here,

  I don't want to take my freedom.
G
  I can't change what makes me high

  And I can't change what I believe in.
Am
  I'm not pleasing no guru,

  I'm not out to look for Jesus.
G
  I'm not afraid to break the rules

  It's just, one love keeps me breathing.



CHORUS:
      Am
  You dream about her, can't you see?
G
  She's only shining bright 'cause she's so out of reach.
     Am
  You dream about the seven seas
       G
  While I'm staying home each night,
  F              G
  Making love to my fidelity.
