Intro

[Verse]
G#maj7/C
I met you in a hurricane
D#maj7
Off costal France
G#maj7/C
And the Blank Mediterranean
D#maj7
They were listening to awful trance
G#maj7/C
And I got my Mom on Medicaid
D#maj7 G#maj7/C
And the forms came in
D#maj7
And we signed them
[Verse]
G#maj7/C
We held onto the balustrade
D#maj7
As the waves crashed in
G#maj7/C
And the rain on slanted council flats:
D#maj7
Relentless
G#maj7/C
I asked if you still felt okay
D#maj7
And you laughed like I just told a joke
G#maj7/C
We thought we saw the sun come up
[Chorus]
D#maj7
But it was lightning, but it was lightning, but it was lightning
G#maj7/C
But it was lightning, but it was lightning
D#maj7
But it was lightning, but it was lightning
G#maj7/C
But it was lightning, but it was lightning
D#maj7
But it was lightning
[Verse]
G#maj7/C
You were there when Mom's new pills came in
D#maj7
The box was light and nondescript
G#maj7/C
We walked around the flooded lake
D#maj7
And you punched me
G#maj7/C
'Cause it's rarely cold in Florida
D#maj7
But we're north of the aquarium
G#maj7/C
And you're a point source and you radiate
D#maj7
And no one's here to stare at us
[Chorus]
G#maj7/C
And it's freezing so let's jump in, and it's so cold so let's jump in
D#maj7
And it's freezing so let's jump in, and it's so cold so let's jump in
G#maj7/C
And it's freezing so let's jump in, and it's so cold so let's jump in
D#maj7
And it's freezing so let's jump in, and it's so cold so let's jump in
[Verse]
G#maj7/C
The winter caught us calling home
D#maj7
Disheveled and disorganized
G#maj7/C
And scrambled on an LCD
D#maj7
And I hate it
G#maj7/C
But we finally got to modern Rome
D#maj7
And I changed my parents' cell phone plan
G#maj7/C
And we talked about iconoclasts
D#maj7
And we waded, and we waded, and we waded, and we waded
[Bridge]
G#maj7/C D#maj7
Bannister, balustrade
G#maj7/C D#maj7
Safety nets: Medicaid
G#maj7/C D#maj7
Medicare, Medi-Cal
G#maj7/C D#maj7
Geoffrey Hill and Namenda
[Chorus]
G#maj7/C
And it's freezing so let's jump in, and it's so cold so let's jump in
D#maj7
And it's freezing so let's jump in, and it's so cold so let's jump in
G#maj7/C
And it's freezing so let's jump in, and it's so cold so let's jump in
D#maj7
And it's freezing so let's jump in, and it's so cold so let's jump in
