Pollen And Salt

	  		 

G                          D/F# 
You've left me with such a silent world, 
Am7                              Am7       G/B 
Where evenings are calm, but I'm restless 
       Cadd9                Gaug/D#     G 
And my breath has become as thin as the wind. 

G                                      D/F# 
Not even the mighty sky could fill the space you left behind 
Am7              Am7     G/B 
Not even when it rains. 
    Cadd9 
No, nothing takes your place 
     Gaug/D#                Em      C#m7b5   Cadd9 
Your emptiness too great to fill. 

Am7         G/B        Cadd9 
I have been holding my breath, 
    Am7      G/B         Cadd9 
For too many nights in a row, 
    Am7          G/B          Cadd9 
And somewhere on coastlines unknown to me 
Gaug/D#        Em 
You paint your dreams, 
C#m7b5   Cadd9 
With reds and blues and greens. 
    Am7                       G/B    Cadd9   Gaug/D# 
Yea you're painting daffodils by the sea, 
        G 
Without me. 

G                   D/F# 
Today in a breeze I sensed your perfume 
Am7                  Am7      G/B 
But you were nowhere near. 
       Cadd9      Gaug/D#          G 
And in reverie, I felt you holding me. 
    G                    D/F# 
And even in my dreams I shake from the fear 
     Am7                Am7     G/B 
That you've been swept away. 
    Cadd9                    Gaug/D#         Em        C#m7b5      Cadd9 
By the rhythm of the waves I whisper in your ears. 



Am7         G/B        Cadd9 
I have been holding my breath, 
    Am7      G/B         Cadd9 
For too many nights in a row, 
    Am7          G/B          Cadd9 
And somewhere on coastlines unknown to me 
Gaug/D#        Em 
You paint your dreams, 
C#m7b5   Cadd9 
With reds and blues and greens. 
    Am7                       G/B    Cadd9   Gaug/D# 
Yea you're painting daffodils by the sea, 
        G 
Without me. 


Am7           Am7    G/B 
I would give away 
   Cmaj7 
My sweetest memories, 
   Am7     D7          Fsus2  C/E 
If I could just be with you again. 
        D7   Fsus2  C/E 
Be with you again. 



Am7         G/B        Cadd9 
I have been holding my breath, 
    Am7      G/B         Cadd9 
For too many nights in a row, 
    Am7          G/B          Cadd9 
And somewhere on coastlines unknown to me 
Gaug/D#        Em 
You paint your dreams, 
C#m7b5   Cadd9 
With reds and blues and greens. 
    Am7                               G/B    Cadd9   Gaug/D# 
Yea you're painting daffodils growing by the sea, 
        G 
Without me. 


G            D/F# 
Last night I dreamt you were with me, 

Am7 
Finally I could breathe.
