[Verse 1]
---------------------
G         C   D        G
 Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.
C A C D    G                     C     D G
       The photograph on the dashboard,  taken years ago,
C A C                              D
    Turned around backwards so the windshield shows
G                C       D       G
Every streetlight reveals the picture in reverse.
C A C                        D
    Still, it's so much clearer.
G                C  D      G
I forgot my shirt at the water's edge.
    C          A        C D
The moon is low tonight.

[Verse 2]
---------------------
G         C   D        G
 Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.
C A    C                     D
   I'm not sure all these people understand.
G     C             D    G
 It's not like years ago.
    C          A
The fear of getting caught,
C   D                  G
 Of recklessness and water.
        C   D        G
They cannot see me naked.
      C            A
These things, they go away,
C  D
 Replaced by everyday.

[Verse 3]
---------------------
G         C    D  G
 Nightswimming, remembering that night.
C A   C
   September's coming soon.
D    G
 I'm pining for the moon,
C D    G
   And what if there were two
C    A       C
 Side by side in orbit
 D
Around the fairest sun?
G     C            D     G
 That bright, tight forever drum
          C       A         C    D
Could not describe nightswimming.

[Verse 4]
---------------------
G                    C    D
You, I thought I knew you.
G
You, I cannot judge.
C A C                      D
    You, I thought you knew me.
              G          C D         G
This one laughing quietly  underneath my breath.
C A         C    D
   Nightswimming.

 The photograph reflects,
C D           G            C   A
  Every streetlight a reminder,
         C      D                    G C D G  C           A        C D
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night,       deserves a quiet night.
