[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
