Tori Amos - Swim To New York State

[Intro]

F Ab/F G/F Ab/F Bb F
Dm C Bb F

[Verse]

Fmaj7 Dm7
I’d swim to New York State
Bb Am
From the Cornish coast of England
F Am
For even just a day
Bb Csus4 C
We’ll meet at that café

[Verse 2]

F Dm
You’ll say it hurt too much to stay
Bb Am
And so you left the Cornish coast of England
Bb Am
And a love who was not ready for this
Bb Csus4 C
To dive with you to where the sea-maids live

[Bridge]

Am C Dm Em
I’ll say that is when I I had to face
Am C G Dm
Life just wasn’t the same and how you gave and you gave

[Verse 3]

F Dm
I’ll ask will you come back?
Bb Am
To the Cornish coast of England
Bb Am
There’s a rock pool we can dive in
Bb Csus4 C
And that now I understand

[Bridge 2]

Am C Dm Am
You gave everything you gave the love
C Dm Em
You made the difference you gave the love
Am C G Am
You gave everything you gave the love
Am G Dm
While I was looking away you gave and you gave
F
And you gave and you gave
C
And you gave and you gave

[Bridge 3]

Bb
Selfless without blame
Am
Your triumph
G
Abandoned in the rain
F
And you gave and you gave
Em
And you gave and you gave
Am C G
And you gave and then still you gave

[Coda]

F Dm
I’d swim from New York State
Bb Am
To the Cornish coast of England
Bb Am
I found a cave we can dive in
F C Dm Am
If only for the day
Dm C Bb
If only for the day
