[Verse]
Dm Am
We saw you from the ocean's side, from under the boat
Dm Am
We saw you making knots, we saw you get the rope
Dm Am
The boy's appearing on the deck and making it lurch
Dm Am Dm Am
And the bubble of your interests ready to burst
[Chorus]
Dm/F Am Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am
He whistles and he runs
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
Dm Am
We saw you in distraction: a sleeping, slow despair
Dm Am
Rehearsing interaction, he wasn't even there
Dm Am
A creature is a creature „Though you wish you were the wind
Dm Am
a boat will not stop moving if you tie him up until
Dm Am
the end
[Chorus 2]
Dm/F Am
He whistles and he runs so hold him fast
Dm/F Am
Breathe the burn, you want to let it last
Dm/F Am
He might succumb to what you haven't seen
Dm/F Am
He has a keen eye for what you used to be
Dm/F Am
When the cadaverous mob saves its doors for the dead men
Dm/F Am
You cannot leave
