G (320003@1)                        DYou're (xx0232@1)my water, you're my wine
            C (x32010@1)                  GYou're (320003@1)my whiskey from time to time

                   C (x32010@1)       DWhether (xx0232@1)not your lips move

             C (x32010@1)               GYou're (320003@1)the movement that I crave
                               DAnd (xx0232@1)in that motion I long to drown
         Am (x02210@1)D (xx0232@1)               GAnd (320003@1)be lost    never to be found
