CAPO: 2nd fret
INTRO: Em  
VERSE:
EmI got a love that brings me home 
Got no need to tDerraform
TEmried to guide by the stars 
But I took it too far to the rAmiver 
That the ancient icesheets bEmorne
EmI came to with fruitflesh in my cheek
Skin stuck in Dmy front teeth
And the scEmales dropped off as the sun came up
And I kAmnew that I could never go back to not
Knowing I was nEmude
CHORUS:
In my jaGcket and and my pEmants and my bCoots
AGll my love was dEmammed up here to CyouEm  
VERSE:
WEmith my nose pressed into your hair 
PreservDation in the air
And I got fEmour kinds of love 
But the one I’m thinking of is Amall four
Directions, here and tEmhere
EmAnd my bones cried out from sleeping on the ground,
Partly in your arms from behDind
You said there’s an uEmnderground river 
It’s just wAmhere we choose to dig in and what we fEmind
CHORUS:
AGll my love was dEmammed up here to yCou
AGll my love was dEmammed up here to yCouEm  
VERSE:
So I fEmollowed the river underground and drank it up:
Cups and cups, and pocketed sDome
I’m always drunk, on the verge of spilling eEmverything,
Filled up lCike a pleurisied lEmung
Wash aEmway the trail-- wonder what we left behind?
and cDups and cups and cups and cups 
You could read me like a horse, with your lAmegs and eyes
I got spooked and Embucked
When I’m pDulling awGay 
I will sDay I feel you pulling awCay
OUTRO:
AGll my love was dEmammed up to todCay
If GI stayed would Emyou stay with me right hCere?
If GI stayed would Emyou stay with me right hCere?G

CAPO: 2nd fret

INTRO:

VERSE:

I got a love that brings me home

Got no need to terraform

Tried to guide by the stars

But I took it too far to the river

That the ancient icesheets borne

I came to with fruitflesh in my cheek

Skin stuck in my front teeth

And the scales dropped off as the sun came up

And I knew that I could never go back to not

Knowing I was nude

CHORUS:

G Em C

In my jacket and and my pants and my boots

G Em C Em

All my love was dammed up here to you

VERSE:

With my nose pressed into your hair

Preservation in the air

And I got four kinds of love

But the one I’m thinking of is all four

Directions, here and there

And my bones cried out from sleeping on the ground,

Partly in your arms from behind

You said there’s an underground river

Am Em

It’s just where we choose to dig in and what we find

CHORUS:

G Em C

All my love was dammed up here to you

G Em C Em

All my love was dammed up here to you

VERSE:

So I followed the river underground and drank it up:

Cups and cups, and pocketed some

I’m always drunk, on the verge of spilling everything,

C Em

Filled up like a pleurisied lung

Wash away the trail-- wonder what we left behind?

and cups and cups and cups and cups

You could read me like a horse, with your legs and eyes

I got spooked and bucked

D G

When I’m pulling away

D C

I will say I feel you pulling away

OUTRO:

G Em C

All my love was dammed up to today

G Em C

If I stayed would you stay with me right here?

G Em C G

If I stayed would you stay with me right here?
