[E]
We live high, our love gorgeous, on the alcohol we feed it.
fat and friendly, we have surplus if we need it.
as hard as we can, our knuckles [E] are white.
We write letters to each other, invent secrets to confess to.
foreign and exotic terms of endearment by which to address you.
fresh, crude to one another.
We stay [E] up all night, and [B] I am healthy.

_ _ We live high, our love gorgeous, on the alcohol we feed it.
And it grows, all fat and friendly, we have surplus if we need it.
We [A] hold on as hard as we can, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ our knuckles [E] are white. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ We write letters to each other, invent secrets to confess to.
I learn foreign and exotic terms of endearment by which to address you.
[A] We feed fresh, _ crude to one another.
We _ _ _ stay [E] up all night, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ and [B] I am healthy.
I am whole, but [A] I have poor impulse control.
And I want [E] to go home, _ _ _ _ but [B] I am home.
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
We _ _ _ _ are strong, we are faithful, we are guardians _ of a rare thing.
We pay close, careful attention to the news the morning air brings.
We [A] show great _ loyalty to _ _ _ _ _ _ the hard times [E] we've been through. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ We are filled with riches and wonders.
Our love keeps the things it finds, and we dance like drunken sailors.
_ Lost at sea, out of our minds, [A] you find shelter somewhere in me. _ _ _ _
_ I find great comfort [E] in you, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ and [A] I keep [B] you _ safe from harm.
You [A] hold me _ in your arms, and I want to [E] go home, _ _ _ _ but [B] I am home.
