Swimming In Miami


Artist: Owl City Album: Of June Song: Swimming In Miami Key: A Verse 1: A E D I'm alone above the atmosphere A E And no one looking up can find me here F#m D Cause I can close my eyes, and disappear A E D When I climb the stairs to watch the sun A E Above station walls, the colors run F#m D To fill the swimming pool when I am done E F#m A D E I am the captain of an oil tanker that travels through your veins Verse 2: A E D When the satellites hang all around A E And I can finally hear the lovely sound F#m D When all the engines in the backroom die down A E D All the airships move across the sky A E And my equipment just keeps standing by F#m D The planets glow and intensify E F#m A D E I am the pilot of a cargo airplane that travels through your veins Chorus 1: Bm A E When you are lying half asleep in your room Bm A E Unaware if it is midnight or afternoon Bm A E Because the water doesn't flood the stairwell Bm A E It could be raining but then you can never tell Bm A E If you're alone in this awful downpour Bm A E Then struggle free and paddle out the cellar door Verse 3 (as verses 1 & 2) In the evening light the boulevard Conceals the night with disregard For all the workers in a west coast ship yard When I rearrange the silverware And re-install the lights and captian's chair I'll lift the ceiling off to breathe the ocean air I am the engineer of forty freight trains that travels through your veins Chorus 2: Bm A E When you are lying half asleep in your room Bm A E Unaware if it is midnight or afternoon Bm A E Because the water doesn't flood the stairwell Bm A E It could be raining but then you can never tell Bm A E If you're awake in this awful downpour Bm A E Then struggle free and paddle out the cellar door Bm A E F#m When you are swimming in Miami at night Bm A E And all around you are the traffic and city lights Ending: A, E, D
