Don't Swallow The Cap

Intro: F  Am 

Dm 
Dull light breaks behind the houses 
F 
I don't see what's strange about this 
Am 
Tiny bubbles hang above me 
C/Bb  C 
It's a sign that someone loves me 
Dm 
I can hardly stand upright 
F 
Hit my head upon the light 
Am 
I have faith but don't believe it 
C/Bb   C 
It's not there enough to leave it 

Dm                                 F 
Everything I love is on the table 
Dm                               C 
Everything I love is out to sea 

Dm 
I have only two emotions 
F 
Careful fear and dead devotion. 
Am 
I can't get the balance right. 
C/Bb  C 
Throw all my marbles in the fire. 
Dm 
I see all the ones I wept for 
F 
All the things I had it in for 
Am 
I won't cry until I hear 
C/Bb  C 
Cause I was not supposed to be here. 

Dm                                 F 
Everything I love is on the table 
Dm                               C 
Everything I love is out to sea 
Bb 
I'm not alone 
Dm 
I'll never be 
F 
Into the bone 
Bb 
I'll never grieve 

Dm 
I'm tired, I'm freezing, I'm done 
F 
When it gets so late I forget everyone 
Am 
I need somewhere to stay 
C/Bb  C 
Don't think anybody I know is awake 
Dm 
Calm down it's alright 
F 
Keep my arms the rest of the night 
Am 
When they ask what do I see 
C/Bb  C 
I say a bright white beautiful heaven hangin' over me 

Bb 
I'm not alone 
Dm 
I'll never be 
F 
Into the bone 
Bb 
I'll never grieve 
Bb 
And if you want (dead seriously) 
Dm 
To see me cry (don't swallow the cap) 
F 
Play 'Let It Be (pat yourself on the back) 
Bb 
Or 'Nevermind' (dead seriously) 

Dm 
Is it time to leave' Is it time to think about 
F 
What I wanna say to the girls at the door' 
Am 
I need somewhere to be 
C/Bb  C 
But I can't get around the river in front of me 
Dm 
Calm down it's alright 
F 
Lead my arms the rest of the night 
Am 
When they ask what do I see 
C/Bb  C 
I say a bright white beautiful heaven hangin' over me 

Interlude: Dm  F  Am  C 

Bb 
I'm not alone (dead seriously) 
Dm 
I'll never be (don't swallow the cap) 
F 
Into the bones (pat yourself on the back) 
Bb 
I'll never grieve (dead seriously) 
Bb 
And if you want (dead seriously) 
Dm 
To see me cry (don't swallow the cap) 
F 
Play 'Let It Be' (pat yourself on the back) 
Bb 
Or 'Nevermind' (dead seriously)
