C                       E F
Remember when you'd sing   just for the fuck of it?
    Am                 C F
Any joy it would bring,   honey, the look of it
         C               E F
Was as sweet as the sound
                                 Am                C F
Your head tilt back, your funny mouth to the clouds

I couldn't hope to know that song or know its words
Wouldn't claim to feel the same we felt the first time it was heard
And I couldn't name that feeling carried in that voice
Was it that or just the act of makin' noise that brought you joy?

                           F
You don't have to sing it right
                         G
But who could call you wrong?
                          Am
To put your emptiness to melody
     C               F
Your awful heart to song
                           F                         G
You don't have to sing it nice, but honey sing it strong
                               Am
At best, you'll find a little remedy
        C                       F
At worst, the world will sing along

Chorus:
              C F G
So honey, sing,    sing
    Am    C      F
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
 C   F G
Sing,  sing
    Am    C       F
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing

Remember when you'd sing before we'd move to it?
And we'd scuff up our shoes, honey, the groove of it
Was whatever you choose
"I Wanna Be Your Lover" or "The Fisherman's Blues"

You didn't always sing it right
But who could call you wrong?
To put your emptiness to melody
Your awful heart to song
You don't have to sing it nice, but honey sing it strong
At best, you'll find a little remedy
At worst, the world will sing along

Chorus:
So honey, sing, sing
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
Sing, sing
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing

          Am                           G
Who could ask you: be unbroken or be brave again?
            C        E                     F
Or, honey, hope even on this side of the grave again?
              Am                         G
And who could ask you to be sound or to feel saved again?
            C               E                F
But stick around until you hear that music play again

Chorus:
So honey, sing, sing
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
Sing, sing
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
Sing, sing
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing
Sing, sing
Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing

Remember when you'd sing just for the love of it?
And any joy it would bring
