                      CI (x32010@1)hope you're not surprised

CWhen (x32010@1)I use my scarred retinas to 
   Cstare (x32010@1)your scrawled and cursive name 
   Conto (x32010@1)the dusty surfaces of
                              Fthings (133211@1)I used to love before you 
                         CIt's (x32010@1)hard but what can I do

CAnd (x32010@1)then I count the days before 
    CAllowing (x32010@1)both my retinas to heal 
  C (x32010@1)                                  
So I can see your face in perfect clarity 
           F (133211@1)   
Oh I will see
                      CYour (x32010@1)face in front of me

G (320003@1)           F (133211@1)              CAnd (x32010@1)then behind my eyelids I'm with you 
     G (320003@1)            F (133211@1)             CImagining (x32010@1)the things we're gonna do
     G (320003@1)         F (133211@1)                 C (x32010@1)In phosphorescent brown and black and blue 
     G (320003@1)             F (133211@1)               CIn (x32010@1)fine and blinding summer light with you

I didn't even want to know your name 
Until the sunlight sparkled in your eyes 
It took me by surprise

And suddenly the paradigm 
Of thinking I was fine 
Was shifted into realising that I 
needed you all of the time

And when I close my eyelids I'm with you 
Imagining the things we're gonna do 
In phosphorescent brown and black and blue 
In fine and blinding summer light with you
