A           Asus2                A 
A daydream spills from my corked head 
Asus2            F#m 
Breaks free of my wooden neck 
D                Dm 
Left to nod over sleeping waves 
A            Asus2           A 
Like bobbing bait for bathing cod 
Asus2              F#m 
Floating flocks of candled swans 
D              Dm 
Slowly drift across wax ponds
[Ritornello]
A           F#m               C#m             F#m 
The men all played along to marching drums 
              C#m           A           E 
And, boy, did they have fun, behind the sea 

They sang, (hey!) 
A      F#m               C#m               F#m 
So our matching legs are marching clocks 
          C#m          A           E 
And we're all too small to talk to God 
            A           F#m         E 
Yes, we're all too smart to talk to God
[Versetto]
A         Asus2              A               Asus2 
Toast the fine folks casting silver crumbs 
               F#m 
To us from the dock 
D                     Dm 
Jinxed things ringing as they leak 
A            Asus2              A 
Through tiny cracks in the boardwalk 
Asus2               F#m 
Scarecrow, now it's time to hatch 
D                   Dm 
Sprouting suns and ageless daughters 
A               Asus2 
Don't you know, don't you know 
           Em 
That those watermelon smiles 
Bm           A        E 
Just can't ripen underwater 
Bm           A        E 
Just can't ripen underwater?
[Ritornello]
A           F#m              C#m              F#m 
The men all played along to marching drums 
              C#m           A           E 
And, boy, did they have fun, behind the sea 
  
They sang, (hey!) 
A       F#m              C#m               F#m 
So our matching legs are marching clocks 
          C#m          A           E 
And we're all too small to talk to God 
           A            F#m         E 
Yes, we're all too smart to talk to God 
          A            F#m         E 
Oh, we're all too smart to talk to God

Oh, legs of wood waves
