Coast

C
I'm not a stone
You're not to gather
              F
And break every bone
      C
ah ah ah


We labour beneath
the weight of our sorrow,
                 F
the crown of our grief
      C
ah ah ah

F
Just because I'm working and you 
sleep alone
      Em
Don't mean that I won't be there 
when you need me at home
      C
Cos I will

F
Just because I'm working when you 
sleep at night
      Em
Don't mean that I won't be there in 
the nick of time
      C
Cos I will

F
Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
C
In the mouth of an angry harbour
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast

F
Could not explain on waking
How you were the cape of certain 
hope
C
Couldn't paint it in pictures 
darling
                     F
I only wanted you to know

ah ah, ah ah oh

AND D PEAT FOR THE D ST OF THE SONG:

You're making a mess
You cut up the curtains for your 
summer dress
ah ah oh

We danced like we did
Like children who don't know what 
modesty is
ah ah oh

When you done spinning like an 
errant moon
Curled up on the carpet like you're 
missing the womb of your mum

You can take your battles to the 
king of the sea
I'll be right behind, you can count 
on me, my love

Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
In the mouth of an angry harbour
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast

Could not explain on waking
How you were the cape of certain 
hope
Couldn't paint it in pictures 
darling
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast

Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
In the mouth of an angry harbour
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast

Could not explain on waking
How you were the cape of certain 
hope
Couldn't paint it in pictures 
darling
I only wanted you to know
ah ah, ah ah oh
