to swim beneath or over
[Em] outside as they're reading between the [Em6] lines
then they re [D] member the part in the hallmark
card where they [Dmaj7] read about the dreams
and reaching for the [Em] stars to hold on a little bit [Em6] closer to
and they say they knew it was [D] time, time to take, take love,
[Dmaj7] time to take a chance here
[Em] time to compromise, to occu [Em6] py the lies

She said [D] what would your mother think of [Dmaj7] all this,
how would your father react oh [Em] lord
Would he take it all back [Em6] what they've done
No way he said [D] take it, take it, take it, he said [Dmaj7] make it,
don't break it with your [Em] own two hands
[Em6] That was my old man and he said
if [Em] all is grounded
you should [G] go make a mountain out of [D] it [Dmaj7]

I've been all around the world
