I Am Not Tab

Kris Oz figured out the chords but did not have time to type, post, and
upload (public atta girl for Kris). I volunteered. All errors are probably
mine. Hope the formatting works.

I am not smooth  and I am not soft
                         
and I am not angry   or mean
                           
I'm just a little   shut off


                    
Shut off like the answer  no
                       
or like the way water never holds


                                 
and I want to be   better than I am
                                                
Oh yes and I want to need   nothing but your hands
                    
'Cause mine are so weak


                               
Oh but my body it wants to move in
             
It wants to move in
         
And your ankles are so strong
                              
I have see you kick   when you swim
                   
You kick   when you swim
      
This time I know   this time that I know
             
That I am not wrong yeah


But you know so dry and cracked   my heart is set back
Yeah just like the moon
When it's a sliver resting on its back
and I will not say
Just exactly how I feel
Before the answers  have yet to be revealed

Oh when my body it wants to move in
it wants to move in
And your ankles are so strong
I have seen you kick when you swim
You kick it when you swim
this time that I know   well this time that I know
That I am not wrong

But you know patience is stronger   than any kiss
And do how I wonder
If we're ever gonna make it
Are we ever gonna make it
