With your favorite finger
Paint the whole world blue
And stop your tears from singing
Hear the cavemen singing
Good news they're bringing

Seven seas
G C
Swimming them so well
G C
Glad to see
G
My face among them
C C
Kissing the tortoise shell
Cmaj7
A longing for
Some fresher feelings
Belonging or
Just forever kneeling
Where is the sense in stealing
Without the grace to be it

C F
Burning my bridges and smashing my mirrors
C F
Turning to see if you're cowardly
C F
Burning the witches with mother religious
C F
You'll strike the matches and shower me

In water games, washing the rocks below
Taught and tamed in time with tear flow
repeat chorus
and end
