G 
What's
whiter than the ocean
D 
Em 
On this holy summer night?
G 
C 
Bigger than the rising moon
D 
G 
So radiant on high
Oh, we're softer than this midnight sand,
D 
G 
so cool beyond the tide.
Oh, we're sweeter than this
D 
having you right here,
G 
right by my side.
D 
You don't have to hold me close,
G 
you don't have to hold my hand.
D 
You don't have to cross the moat
Em 
D 
that circles my circumstances.

You're sitting right here, right here,
D 
Em 
right here by my side.

G 
The stars are dancing crazy
D 
Em 
Falling lazy into the brine
G 
C 
D 
The slab being on the sparkling shore
where our silent thoughts entwine.
G 
There's a humming in
the space between us,
D 
G 
things we can't confide,
Ab 
that is mumbling words we cannot say
D 
G 
across this close divide.
D 
You don't have to hold me close,
G 
you don't have to hold my hand,
D 
you don't have to cross the mode
Em 
D 
that circles my circumstances.
G 
Cm 
Oh, what's this caught in
F

my throat?
D 
That having you here on
G 
C 
the sand so close
D 
C

Is like a kiss from the universe

right here by my side

Saying you're right here, right here,

We hear   someone singing
G 
Am 
G 
down the water line
D

They say he's singing for God,
D 
for God alone
B

C 
Bm 
A 
G 
Shouting out his love for the divine

But I know better, I  know the truth
It's a serenade for sure

For a beautiful, awkward moment

D

On a distant shore
The city lights are shining,
E 
F#m 
small and silent across the   bay
A

Millions homeless sleeping,
A 
after another long hard day
D 
E

While my heart is broken open
E

I have feelings I can't hide
Am 
A
