Zach Berkman: Down to the Second



Intro: Em | D | C | C   x2

Verse 1: 
Em              D                   C
  I know what I want, I know what I want

I want a long life, all kidding aside
Em                  D                    C
  the rules are the same, as they always were

present's a thought and a piece of mind
Em              D                      C
  and i want my girl in my arms when I sleep
                                       Em
breathing in her dreams near the air I breathe
D            C
 and I wanna dream

Chorus:
Em                  D
  right down to the minute
                  C
right down to the second, I can feel my every breath unfold
Em                  D
  right down to the minute
                  C
right down to the second

Em   D                C
       I'm down to the seconds

Verse 2:
Em              D                   C
steady little boat, steady little boat

take me to the shore, take me to the shore
Em              D                   C
take me back home all the way to where I'm from

to the banks of the Illinois
Em              D                   C
show me the house I was raised in

and the woods where I used to play
Em              D                   C
steady little boat take me home cause I'm far away

Chorus x2

and I'm down to the seconds

Bridge:
Em                        D                      C
  out on this tiny planet, under a bright yellow sun
on an island east of an island
Em                                 D                           C
  just past the bridge and tunnels, I feel the ground under my shoes
on a street between a couple of avenues

Em  D          C
      and I'll lose it

Chorus x2
Em              D                   C
right down to the minute
Em              D                   C
right down to the second
Em              D                   C
I'm down to the seconds
