[Verse 1]
Am Bm7 C Bm7
You're like a fool on fire
Am Bm7 C Bm7
To the water so blue
Am Bm7 C Bm7
I will come undone
F Em G
And I will run to you
[Verse 2]
Am Bm7 C Bm7
Sometimes we are an open flower
Am Bm7 C Bm7
Sometimes we are an open wound
Am Bm7 C Bm7
Sometimes we are a kind of echo chamber, wherein
F Em G Am
You're all fire and brimstone and I'm all that too
[Chorus]

Am Bm7 C Bm7
Take me back in time
Am Bm7 C Bm7
Back to Montreal
Am Bm7 C Bm7
Slow dancing by the kitchen table
F Em G
To Love is Not Pop by El Perro del Mar
Am Bm7 C Bm7
And take me back to this island
Am Bm7 C Bm7
Where I sing for you
Am Bm7 C Bm7
Like a fool on fire
F Em G
To the water, so, to the water so
[Bridge]
C Am
True blue (true blue)
F Em G
And there is something like a tidal wave come my way, babe
C Am
True blue (true blue)
F Em G
And we are digging in the sand like a couple of maniacs
C Am
True blue (true blue)
F Em G
And there's a nautilus curve, but we can call it a cave, babe
C Am
True blue (true blue)
F G
I heard the island's all right if you're looking for a grave
N.C.
[Chorus]

Baby blue
