Skyway Bridge Tab

Intro:
 
 

                                     
We stay up all night and watch the boats
                                     
From underneath the bridge, the trucks fly
                                     
And in the bravest moments I watch you
                           
And we take turns looking away
  
          
I adore you
          
I want to follow you
                       
Make a boat out of this cigarette pack
                      
Watch it float away and hope it comes back
                            
With the water under skyway bridge

                                        
We balance on the rocks and scuff up our feet
                                  
Back inside the car, our song's on repeat
                                                               
And when the air is damp and filled with morning, we'll take our cue

Curl up in the back seat

          
I adore you
          
I want to follow you
                       
Make a boat out of this cigarette pack
                      
Watch it float away and hope it comes back
                            
With the water under skyway bridge

 
 

                      
The steel men rise and we shut our eyes
                               
Smoke across the bay, now we're driving away
                          
I threw pennies and wishes up to the sky
                                 
Watch them sink to the bottom and kiss you goodbye

      
I adore you 
           
I want to follow you
                       
Make a boat out of this cigarette pack
                      
Watch it float away and hope it comes back
