Verse 1
Em 
I
gazed in fascination
when I should have simply
D 
G 
D 
walked away
Em 
I winked at empty eyes, I smiled,
I knelt and kissed the feet
G 
D 
G 
D 
of clay
Em 
What you are is what you seem to me,
G 
D 
G 
D 
which is just what I project
Em

G 
Em

G 
D 
G 
D 
G 
D 
in the cold of the night
Em 
A filmin', splashin',
swimmin', playin'
G 
D 
G 
D 
in your shallow depths
Em 
A -dovin', splashin', playin',
G 
D 
G

G 
D 
G 
swimmin' in your shallow depths
D 
G 
D
