If I seem ou ou ou ou out of it
 
Bm                          F#m     G
I've just gone to find you, I'll be back in a bit
 
D               A      G
Circles clo o o o se up but circles are wide

If I drift ou ou ou ou out in channels way too deep
           Bm                         F#m       G
It's cause I can't stand the shifting sands and shells under our feet
 
         D                  A          G
Put your suitcase dow ow ow ow own and leave your shoes
 
Bm                F#m     G                          Em   G
Gently by the door   in a huddle with your boots
