Verse 1:
Bm   A         Em      G       Bm A Em G
You with the dark curls, you with the watercolored eyes
Bm    A       Em    G  Bm A Em G
You who bears all your teeth in every smile
    Bm     A    Em   G       Bm A Em G
Says I can always hear you sing, I wanna hear you speak to me
    Bm     A    Em    G    Bm A Em G
While a stranger braids my hair back out on the street
   Bm   A    Em    G     Bm A Em G
And in your dreams we are shooting at snakes
   Bm    A     Em   G    Bm A Em G
And while you were asleep, I was surely awake

Pre-Chorus:
     Bm  A  Em  G
I was talking out a cigarette
     Bm   A  Em  G
There's nothing left to say
   Bm     A     Em  G
But he should have been there anyway
    Bm   A    Em    G  Bm A Em G
For I didn't sing a single song, all day

Chorus:
    Bm A Em G
As my love for you dies
    Bm A Em G
As my love for you dies
    Bm A Em G
As my love for you is steadily dying

As sharp and serious as a pistol in the eye

Your love, it knows the Lord
G          Em
Tie my hands and I'm on my knees

As I kneel down, I kneel down in the sea
G       Em
To the ocean floor, I will sink
Am         C       G G
Like a steel chest full of weapons
G            Em
And all in spite of the tide, you will rise

Like a red, ripe, red, ripe apple

Take a swim in the dirty water
