Em (022000@1)                         CNursed (x32010@1)the shoreline like a wound
           GReports (320003@1)of lover's tryst
              CWere (x32010@1)neither clear nor descript

    CThe (x32010@1)quiet things that no one ever knows

                          EmAnd (022000@1)keep your feet on the ground

If today's the day it gets tired
                        CToday's (x32010@1)the day we drop out

Gave up my body and bed
                  DAll (xx0232@1)for an empty hotel

Wasting words on lower cases and capitals

Verse 2:
GI (320003@1)contemplate the day we wed

GBy (320003@1)then it's you I can do without
                CThere's (x32010@1)nothing new to talk about
                EmAnd (022000@1)though our kids are blessed
