First Aid Kit

         D                     G           
With the first light and the little
A         D
Fragile moon
       D         G             
I was out on the porch now
    A         D
I'm ready for doom
         G            A           D
And it's funny how it all came to be
  G            A                D
The way you so plainly chose to stare at me


D                 G            
And the afternoon embraces you
A                      D
Like a million worried hands
D                  G
And I want to look forward
A                   D
Go discover foreign land
G                   A
In the mirror I was balancing 
D
On tiny strings
G                     A
It looks silly but oh really it's just 
D
A physical thing

D          G
So tell me why you ask me
A          D
To do as I please
D              G
I would rather fall backwards
A          D
And forget everything
G                 A
And I've tried to call on you when
D
I know you're not home
G             A
I'm not ready for this but it's
D
The way it goes



G A D    x2




D                  G
It was easier when I knew 
A                    D
Nnothing of what I'd missed 
D                     G        
You're so happy I can see it and that's
A                 D
The worst part of it
G               A
So let her take you out
D
On sea
G                           A
I will wave to you from the harbor
D
Oh little silly me 


Em          A
The sailors leave in the morning
Dm          A
I'll be waiting for you all night
Em            A
The ship sets off in the morning
Em            A
I'll be waiting for you all right
        A        Em
Oh night
        A        Em
Oh night
        A        Em
Oh night
        A
Oh night
