Intro: G
GD
You're my water, you're my wine
CG
You're my whiskey from time to time
D
You're the hunger on my bones
CG
Al the nights I sleep alone
C
Sweet intoxication
G
When your words wash over me
CD
Whether not your lips move
G
You speak to me
GD
Like an ocean without waves
CG
You're the movement that I crave
D
And in that motion I long to drown
AmDG
And be lost never to be found
D-G-D-C-GGD
You're my water, you're my wine

You're my whiskey from time to time
