Chorus:
F
Oh, Anne-Marie, with your chain
G
Come to me, make me sane
F
Feed the dog, walk a mile
G
Speak it simple, make me smile
F
Tell me a thought, tell me beautiful things
G
Like how the river bends in a wild wood creek
F
Am I making history?
Am I working out?
G
Only what the moon does to the devout

Am                       G
And I may be floating through memory
Am                               G
We may be the broken wings on a butterfly
                F
But didn't we dream big
          G
Once or twice
                 F
And that's just fine

Chorus:
Oh, Anne-Marie
Oh, Anne-Marie, with your chain
Come to me, make me sane
Feed the dog, walk a mile
Speak it simple, make me smile
Tell me a thought, tell me beautiful things
Like how the river bends in a wild wood creek

And I may be floating through memories
We may be the broken wings on a butterfly
But didn't we dream big
Once or twice

                      Am
Threw a ribbon at the night
         G
Broke a candle, bathed in light
      F
While all around us
                         Am
Real life flashed at the window
G   F
Oh, oh

Am
You didn't
                    G
You didn't have to tell me
          F
I knew it always
     Am
You didn't
                    G
You didn't have to tell me
          F
I knew it always

Oh, Anne-Marie, with your chain
Come to me, make me sane
Feed the dog, walk a mile
Most things now make me smile
Am I making history?
Am I working out?
Only what the moon does to the devout
