Leviathans Home! by The Finches
Capo on 3rd fret
Intro:
G C G D
C G
Well, I rode a whale of a love home that night
C G
With a harpoon stuck fast in my side
C D G Em
I gave no thought to un-healing harms
C D G
As I rode my leviathan home
C G
Let the crabs claw away in their castles
C G
Let the clams clamp away at their boards
C D G Em
Let the barnacles dip their ghostly ships
C D Em
Let the new tide swallow the shore
C D G
The new tide will swallow the shore
C G
While the crabs cackle out of their confines
C G
Let their sounds sink into the sea
C D
'Cause all of these waves
G Em
Will smoothly sway
C D G
Forming the yes infinitely
C D
And all these days
G Em
Will blew away
C D G
As soon as you say yes to me
C G
Watch the sun slide under the ocean
C G
Feel the sands stay warm for a while
C D
You can hold my smile
G Em
You can press my palm
C D G
You can be my leviathan
C D G
I will be your leviathan
C G
While the do-rights waste in their one-rooms
C G
Let the do-wrongs hurry along
C D G Em
Let the renegades and the castaways
C D G
Find their leviathans
C D
Let the ocean wave
G Em
And the sea-spray foam
C D G
May you ride your leviathan home
