[Verse]

Bm                        G      
  There's still so far to go and 
               D
I can't feel my toes
                                A     
When the rain soaks through the hills 
                    Bm
and slips to the sole
                                 G
Yeah, the blades are two feet tall
                     D                
I wade in green, I'm movin' forward to 
                   A
where God only knows
Bm                        G          
  Feel the wind's harsh refrain and 
                   D
the clouds grip my face
                         A        
Saying, "it's alright to run from
                Bm
 all this pain" 
                      G        
Oh, when it's time to go with  
                        D
 one last breath that's in my lungs
                            A            
I scream, "It's all for love", 

I scream, 
                  G
"It's all for love"
 
 
[Chorus]

                  D       G
Come and kiss me, saltwater
         D                             A
Oh, finally, I feel at three or four degrees
            D        G
I'm free in saltwater
            D                       A
Embrace the deep and leave everything
              Bm
It was just a dream
 
 
[Verse]

                 G              
I can see it up ahead where the 
              D
sky meets the ground
                        A           Bm
And after that, there's only moving grey
                      G
I am filled up with regret
                     D           
With things I did or never said, 
                           A
just leave that, well, alone
  
 
[Chorus]

                   D        G
And, come kiss me, saltwater
         D                             A
Oh, finally, I feel at three or four degrees
            D        G
I'm free in saltwater
            D                   A
Embrace the deep and leave everything
              Em
It was just a dream
 
 
[Post-Chorus]

   A                      Bm
Ah-ah, it was just a dream
G              Em
 It was just a dream
   A                      D
Ah-ah, it was just a dream
       G
Was it just a dream?
 
 
[Bridge]

Bm                         G      
  Now, I'm standing on the edge, 
               D
gazing into Heck 
                   A     
Or is it somethin' else? 
             Bm
I just can't tell 
                         G      
And when there's nothin' left, 
                    D
I close my eyes and take one step
                        A           
And say, "Well, here it goes", say,
                G
 "Well, here it goes" 
 
 
[Chorus]

                  D       G
Come and kiss me, saltwater
         D                             A
Oh, finally, I feel at three or four degrees
            D        G
I'm free in saltwater
            D                       A
Embrace the deep and leave everything
              D     G D A
It was just a dream
