Distanced from one, blind to to the other.
Listen here, my sister and my brother.
What would you care if you lost the other?
I always wonder why did we bother?
Distanced from one, deaf to the other.

Monty this seems strange to me, the movies had that movie thing
Gm Bb Dm C G
But nonsense has a welcome ring and heros don't come easy
Gm Bb Gm Bb
Now nonsense isn't new to me, I know my head I know my feet
Gm Bb Dm C G Dm C G
But mischief knocked me in the knees so just let go, just let go
Gm Bb Gm Bb
I saw the ocean meet the man, I saw you buried in the sand
Gm Bb Dm C G
A friend was there to hold my hand, so walk on by
Gm Bb Gm Bb
So I went walking through the stream, I saw you strung up in a tree
Gm Bb Dm C G Dm C G
A woman out there said to me, said hold your tongue, hold your tongue
Bb Dm C G Bb Dm C G
You don't owe me anything, you don't want this sympathy [waste your breath]
Bb Dm C Dm C G
Don't you waste your breath [waste your breath] for the silver screen
Gm Bb Gm Bb
That nonsense doesn't mean a thing, they tried to bust you in a sting
Gm Bb Dm C G
But virtue isn't everything so don't waste time
Gm Bb Gm Bb
Now Here's a rhyme that you must hear, put this on your reel to reel
Gm Bb Dm C G Dm C G
Mischief through a rotten deal, Monty's laying low, he is laying low
Dm C G Dm C G
Just let go, just let go

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.
G C D5 G C A |
The photograph on the dashboard, taken years ago,
C D5
turned around backwards so the windshield shows.
G C D5 G C A |
Every streetlight reveals the picture in reverse.
C D5
Still, it's so much clearer.
G C D5 G
I forgot my shirt at the water's edge.
C A C | D5 |
The moon is low tonight.
{Play Rhy. Fig. 1}
G C D5 G
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.
C D5 G5
I'm not sure all these people understand.
C D5 G
It's not like years ago,
C A C D5 G5
The fear of getting caught, of recklessness and water.
C D5 G
They cannot see me naked.
C A C D5 G
These things, they go away, replaced by everyday.
C G C A |
Nightswimming. Remembering that night.
C D5 C C D5 |
September's coming soon. I'm pining for the moon.
G C A C
And what if there were two side by side in orbit
D5 G
around the fairest sun?
C D5 G C A C | D5 |
That bright, tight forever drum could not describe nightswimming.
G C D5 G C A |
You, I thought I knew you. You, I cannot judge.
C D5
You, I thought you knew me.
G C D5 G C
This one laughing quietly underneath my breath.
A C | D5 |
Nightswimming.

Hey now little speedy head, the read on the speedmeter says
D Dm Dsus2

D Dm
Where people drown and people serve,
Dsus2 Dsus4/G D Dm Dsus2
Don't be shy, your just deserve is only just light years to go.
G A D Em
Me, my thoughts are flower strewn, ocean storm, bayberry moon.
G A D
I have got to leave to find my way
G A D Em
Watch the road and memorize this life that pass before my eyes,
G A D
nothing is going my way
D Dm Dsus2 Dsus4/G x 2
D Dm Dsus2 Dus4/G
The ocean is the rivers goal, a need to leave the water knows.
D Dm Dsus2
We're closer now than light years to go.
G A D Em
I have got to find the river, bergamot and vetiver

D Dm Dsus2
Fall into the ocean.
G A D Em
The river to the ocean goes, a fortune for the undertow.
G A D
None of this is going my way.
G A D Em
There is nothing left to throw of ginger, lemon, indigo,
G A D
Coriander stem and rose of hay.
G A D Em
Strength and courage overrides these privileged and weary eyes of
G A D
River poet search naivete.
G A D Em
Pick up here and chase the ride, the river empties to the tide.
G A D
