Seabear - I Sing I Swim - putty

This is a great song and very easy to play along with, listen to the timing of the song, 
once you get better try mixing it up and picking instead of strumming! Have Fun! (Watch 
Banzai! Fighters! After! Midnight!)


Capo 5

          
When the birds are sleeping
                      
That's when the trees sing
               
You left your winter clothes,
                           
And your teeth marks in my skin


                     
So shake the leaves, off the trees,
                
Watch them float down the stream
                 
Your son, your daughter
                
Swimming in the water

    

                                
And I miss you, even when you're around
             
I'm a black cloud,
                         
Sending lightning to the ground


                              
So darling please, show your teeth
                                 
Just one more dance to help me sleep
        
Whirl, cold water eyes
                    
Fill the past with friendly nights
            
Human skin, can be hard to live in
                              
You'll feel better in the morning
                                
Wash your hands in the lake
                            
You've got a heart, some way

Interlude

           
Trails lost in the snow
                             
Make way for winter's eerie glow
                 
And that black rock in your bedroom
               
I hope you'll climb it soon
               
In your boat, tied to a tree
             
I hope you'll find the sea

   

                         
Throw me a dream please, it's been a dreamless sleep
                     
For such a long time, such a long time

Sing myself awake

Watch the branches break
                                  
No one could ever take your place
                                      
Wash your face in the lake
                                     

You've got a diamond under your skin
