em                     C (x32010@1)       GI (320003@1)opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light 
em                        C (x32010@1)     
Walking down by the bay, on the shore
em                   Gstaring (320003@1)up at the planes that aren't there anymore 
em                  C (x32010@1)    G (320003@1)        C (x32010@1)I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold 
em            C (x32010@1)                    em      
Like an introvert, I drew my over shirt 
                   G (320003@1)                          em     
Around my arms and began to shiver violently before 
             C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)         C (x32010@1)                 
You happened to look and see the tunnels all around me 
em                  C (x32010@1)        em
Running into the dark underground 
                    G (320003@1)                    em
All the subways around create a great sound 
                  C (x32010@1)         GTo (320003@1)my motion fatigue: farewell 
        em              CWith (x32010@1)your ear to a seashell 
                   em
You can hear the waves in underwater caves 
                     C (x32010@1)                    GAs (320003@1)if you actually were inside a saltwater room 

    (D, em, C (x32010@1)      D, em, G)


CHORUS:
  
em                     C (x32010@1)          GTime (320003@1)together is just never quite enough
                     C (x32010@1)                         em
When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home
                               C (x32010@1)                GWhat (320003@1)will it take to make or break this hint of love?
             CWe (x32010@1)need time, only time 
em                         C (x32010@1)              GWhen (320003@1)we're apart whatever are you thinking of? 
                        C (x32010@1)                        em
If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone? 
                           C (x32010@1)                GSo (320003@1)tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love? 
               CAll (x32010@1)the time, all the time 


em                         C (x32010@1)      GCan (320003@1)you believe that the crew has gone and wouldn't let me sign on?
em                   C (x32010@1)         em                    GAll (320003@1)my islands have sunk in the deep, so I can hardly relax or even oversleep
em                  C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)        em                       C (x32010@1)   
I feel as if I were home some nights when we count all the ship lights 
               em
I guess I'll never know why sparrows love the snow 
                            C (x32010@1)                           GWe'll (320003@1)turn off all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow
