Lime Tree

       D                           
I keep floating down the river but 
    Gbm
the ocean never comes
D                                 
Since the operation I heard you're
     G
 breathing just for one
     Em                     
Now everything is imaginary, 
     A
especially what you love
    Em                             
You left another message, said it's
   G
 done
       D
It's done

[Verse 2]

       D                        
When I hear beautiful music it's 
        Gbm
always from another time
     D                      
Old friends I never visit, I 
    G
remember what they're like
 Em                           
Standing on a doorstep full of 
   A
nervous butterflies
    Em                          G
Waiting to be asked to come inside
                D
Just come inside

[Chorus]

            Em     A
But I keep going out
        D                 A    
I can't sleep next to a stranger 
            G
when I'm coming down
    Gb                             
It's 8 a.m., my heart's beating too
 Bm
 loud
D
Too loud
      A        Em           Gb   
Don't be so amazing (ah ah ah) or
                     G
 I'll miss you too much
   Gb                            
I felt something that I had never 
  G
touched


[Verse 3]
D                          Gbm
Everything gets smaller now the 
further that I go
             D                     
Towards the mouth and the reunion 
        G
of the known and the unknown
Em                              A
Consider yourself lucky if you think
 of it as home
             Em                 
You can move mountains with your 
                G
misery if you don't
            D
If you don't

     D                            
It comes to me in fragments, even 
Gbm
those still split in two
            D                   
Under the eaves of that old lime 
                Em
tree I stood examining the fruit
            Em                     
Some were ripe and some were 
          A
rotten, I felt nauseous with the 
truth
             Em                
There will never be a time more 
        G
opportune

[Chorus]
D          Em           A
So I just won't be late
             D                  A 
The window closes, shocks roll 
            G
over in a tidal wave
    Gb                             
And all the color drains out of the
    G
 frame

D

    A             Em             
So pleased with a daydream (ah ah
Gb                         G
 ah) that now living is no good
        A                          
I took off my shoes and walked into
        Bm
 the woods
       Gb                       
I felt lost and found with every 
           G        D
step I took
