D            
let's stay right where we fell
C
here near that magic swell
D                              C
there's nothing else i want to do
D
i'll keep very still
C
i'll keep my distance well
D                        C
i just want to watch you move

D
cause they're shining now
C
and they're crashing down
D                        C                      
just like they've done forever
D
even when you're not there
C
it never stops i swear
D                   C
not for one second ever

G          D G                D 
a long time is what forever is
G          D G                D   C
a long time is what forever is

but here's this gorgeous day
two names and salt and blues ok
fear not but for the trembles
and waves like seraphim
to throw your hunger in
cast out by the handful

and all i'd ask of you
is just one kiss or two
and a whisper to remain
and when this part is through
for my body to
be left out in the rain

G          D G                D
a long time is what forever is
G          D G                D
a long time is what forever is

C               D
ain't you tired? ain't you tired?
C               D
ain't you tired? ain't you tired?

G              D
Ain't You Tired?
G              D
Ain't You Tired?
G              D
Ain't You Tired?


if winter comes on time
in her coat she'll find
that note i wrote back then
'sleep after every day
but never get to say
goodnight to you again'
