True Affection by The Blow
True Affection
A---/----/F#m---/E---/ repeat once
(Chorus)
A
I was out of your league
F#m
And you were 20,000 underneath the sea
E
Waiving affections
A
You were out of my league
F#m
At a distance that I didn't wanna see
E
Down to the bottom
(1st Verse)
D E A F#m
I wanted a junction and often there was one
D E A F#m
You'd surface face first and we'd share our thought bubbles
D E A F#m
And I still believe in the phrases that we breathed
D E
But I know the distance isn't fair to cross
(Chorus)
(2nd Verse; same chords)
Your depths made a pressure that punctured my works and all your fluids
couldn't tolerate the force of my thirst
I love the place where we shared our tiny grace
But just because it's real don't mean it's gonna work
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
D A E
And true affection floats
D A E
True affections sinks like a stone
D A E
I never felt so close
D A E
I never felt so all alone
(Chorus)

SAME CHORDS AS VERSE:
I was out of your league
And you were 20,000 underneath the sea
Waiving affections
You were out of my league
At a distance that I didn't wanna see
Wanted you nearer
SAME CHORDS AS CHORUS:
Your depths made a pressure that punctured my works and all your
Fluids couldn't tolerate the force of my thirst
I love the place where we shared our tight embrace
But because it's real doesn't mean it's gonna work
I was out of your league
And you were 20,000 underneath the sea
Waiving affections
You were out of my league
At a distance that I didn't wanna see
Wanted you nearer
BRIDGE:
A D
And true affection floats
A D
True affections sinks like a stone
A D
I never felt so close
A D
I never felt so all alone
I was out of your league
And you were 20,000 underneath the sea
Waiving affections
You were out of my league
At a distance that I didn't wanna see
Wanted you nearer
