A#m                  F#                 C#                 A#m
Too much small talk, well, my darling, that’s bad for our health
                     F#                  C#          A#m
Turns your talks so small, you’ll turn into somebody else
                             F#                      C#
Swimming in the shallow end really ain’t getting us far
              A#m
I wanna know where you’ve been, who you need, why you left, why you cry
   F#                 C#
I wanna know who you are

Chorus:
                    A#m
So baby, let’s get deep
  F#             C#             A#m
Whisper all our secrets under sheets
 F#           C#                  A#m
Take me where you visit in your dreams
      F#                C#            A#m    F#  C#
Then kiss me hard like I’m your only oxygen, oxygen
            A#m    F#             C#                 A#m
Now baby, please, let me wash my sins deep in your stream
  F#                C#              A#m
Feels as if you’re teaching me to breathe
 F#                  C#              A#m        F#  C#
Baby, please, stay close, you are my oxygen, my oxygen

Mama said, "My baby, please be careful with your heart
Thugs and thieves and wolves are lurking out there in their dark"
I tried to live a life in fear, but that really didn't get me far
I wanna know who you are, where you've been, what you need, how you love
I wanna know who you are

Chorus:
So baby, please, let's get deep
Whisper all our secrets under sheets
Take me where you visit in your dreams
Then kiss me hard like I'm your only oxygen, oxygen
Now baby, please, let me wash my sins deep in your stream
Feels as if you're teaching me to breathe
Baby, please, stay close, you are my oxygen, my oxygen

            A#m
I wanna be what you need
                            F#                       C#
Who you need, whenever you need it, I just wanna be there
            A#m
I wanna be what you need
                            F#                        C#
Who you need, whenever you need it, I just wanna be there
            A#m
I wanna be what you need
                            F#                        C#
Who you need, whenever you need it, I just wanna be there
            A#m
I wanna be what you need
                            F#                        C#
Who you need, whenever you need it, I just wanna be there
           A#m                            F#             C#
And if you trust me with spirit, I will trust mine with you
        A#m                            F#         C#
If you fall from the building, I will hold on to you
        A#m                        F#         C#
If you kneel by the river, I will wash over you
            A#m
I wanna be what you need
                            F#                       C#
Who you need, whenever you need it, I just wanna be there

Chorus:
So baby, let's get deep
Whisper all our secrets under sheets
Take me where you visit in your dreams
Then kiss me hard like I'm your only oxygen
(Only oxygen), oxygen, yeah
