Lyrics
(C5)Nightswimming (D)deserves a quiet night.
(D)The (G)photograph on the dashboard,
(G)taken years ago,
(C)turned around backwards so the (Dsus)windshield shows.
(G)Every streetlight (D)knew you.
reveals the (G)picture in reverse.
(C)Still, it's so much clearer.
(G)I forgot my shirt at the water's edge.
The (Csus2)moon is low tonight.
(G)(Csus2)Nightswimming (D)deserves a quiet night.
(A)I'm (C)not sure all these people understand.
pining for the It's (D)not like years ago,
what if there were the (Csus2)fear of (A)getting caught,
in orbit of (Dsus)recklessness and water.
They cannot (D)see me (G)naked.
These (Csus2)things, they (A)go away,
(Dsus)replaced by ev'ryday.
(G)(Csus2)Nightswimming, (D)remembering that night.
(A)(C)September's coming soon.
under I'm pining for the It's (D)not like years a And what if there were two (Csus2)fear of side (A)ting by in orbit (Dsus)around the fairest sun?
ter. They That tight (D)forever (G)drum could (Csus2)not (A)describe nightswim
(Dsus)replaced by ev'ryday.
(C)ming.
(D)The (G)photograph reflects (D)ev'ry streetlight, a (A)reminder.
(C)Nightswimming (Dsus)deserves a (D)quiet night,
(G)(Csus2)deserves a (A)quiet night.
(G)photograph reflects (D)ev'ry streetlight, a (A)reminder.
(C)Nightswimming (Dsus)deserves a (D)quiet night,
(G)(Csus2)deserves a (A)quiet night.
