C                    Gm 
Dandelion you´re the only thing 
        F             C 
growing on this beach tonight 

Am                            Gm 
And stars came down through a colander  
Em  F   Gm             C 
and offered you their light 

C                   Gm 
I fell in love and it doesn´t hurt,  
   F                    C 
no my back is stiff and strong 

Am                   Gm 
Hearts may break and egos strain 
Em  F   Gm              C 
but my eyes will never roam 

F             G 
Oh meet me at the estuary 

( C  Am  Gm  F ) 
( C  Am  Gm  F ) 

C                  Gm 
Tell a lie, I hear cracking fires  
      F                    C 
light the fuel behind your lips 

Am                  Gm 
Do you know that I never grow 
Em  F   Gm      C 
accustomed to it? 

C                       Gm 
We fell in love and it doesn´t hurt,  
F                       C 
my back stays stiff and strong 

Am                           Gm 
Our hearts may break and our egos strain  
Em  F   Gm             C 
but our eyes will never roam 

F               G          C  Am  
Oh meet me at the estuary 
F               G 
Float with me out to sea 

( C  Am  Gm  F ) 

F               G          C  Am  
Oh meet me at the estuary 
F               G  
Oh, Float with me out to sea
