               A
Well will you fill my head with stories
                                          E
'til I close my eyes and dream until the dawn
                A
And when I'am sleeping tell me secrets
                                           E
Tell me things you've never told no one before
              A
And when you wake up hiding nothing
                                      E
Maybe you'll know how it feels to be born
         A
I could wake up feeling something for
                        E
the first time in so long

Chorus:
     B
And we could walk down towards the sea
                    A
In the new shoes I bought you
  B
Stay there for all of the day
                    C#m         B
While the sun plays on the water

Well will you fill me with excitement
Like the feeling that we felt on Christmas Eve
When we didn’t know to laugh
Or to cry in to our sleeves
And I know some things are not real
But in you I truly feel I believe
When we lie down on your bed
I press my head down on your chest and hear you breathe

Chorus:
         B
Well I know it's late but let's go to the sea
                       A
I know a way that is shorter
     B
And we could sink out under the stars
                        A
You can wear my woolen jumper
     B
And we can sink out in to the stones
                      A
You can lay upon my shoulder
     B
And we could stay there all of the night
                     C#m         B
While the moon rests on the water
                     C#m         B
While the moon rests on the water
                     C#m         B
While the moon rests on the water
