The Saltwater Room Owl City
The Saltwater Room, by Owl City
Standard Tuning
Capo on the 5th
I think to get the most sound of chords in this song without arpeggiating is
this variation of C and G only in the verse, every other chord is played
standard in the rest of the song (including the chorus). Also it sounds
better to end both verses with a standard G chord.

[C]I opened my eyes last [G]night, and saw you in the lowlight
[C]Walking down by the bay, on the shore
[Em]Staring up at the p[C]lanes that arent there [D]anymore
[C]I was feeling the night, grow [G]old, and you were looking so cold
[C]Like an introvert, I drew my over shirt
[Em]Around my arms and beg[C]an to shiver [D]violently before
[C]You happened to look and [G]see the tunnels all around me
[C]Running into the dark underground
[Em]All the subways a[C]round create a great s[D]ound
[C]To my motion fatigue f[G]arewell
With your ear to a seashell
[C]You can hear the waves in underwater caves
Em C D G(standard chord)
As if you actually were inside a saltwater room
CHORUS*
[D]Time to[Em]gether is just [C]never q[G]uite enough
[D]When you and [Em]I are a[G]lone, Ive never [C]felt so at home
[D]What will it [Em]take to make or [C]break this [G]hint of love?
[D]We need [Em]time, [G]only [C]time
[D]When we?re a[Em]part whatever [C]are you [G]thinking of?
[D]If this is [Em]what I call [G]home, Ive never [C]felt so alone
[D]So tell me [Em]darling, do you [C]wish weed f[G]all in love?
[D]All the [Em]time, a[G]ll the [C]time
VERSE 2
[C]Can you believe that the crew has [G]gone, and wouldnt let me sign on?
[C]All my islands have sunk in the deep, [Em]so I can hardly re[C]lax or even o[D]versleep
[C]I feel as if I were home some [G]nights, when we count all the ship lights
[C]I guess Ill never know, why sparrows love the snow
E C D G(standard chord)
Well turn off all of the lights, and set this ballroom aglow
[D]So tell me [Em]darling, do you [C]wish weed f[G]all in love?
[D] [Em] A[G]ll the [C]time
CHORUS
[D]Time to[Em]gether is just [C]never q[G]uite enough
[D]When you and [Em]I are a[G]lone, Ive never [C]felt so at home
[D]What will it [Em]take to make or [C]break this [G]hint of love?
[D]We need [Em]time, [G]only [C]time
[D]When were a[Em]part whatever [C]are you [G]thinking of?
[D]If this is [Em]what I call [G]home, Ive never [C]felt so alone
[D]So tell me [Em]darling, do you [C]wish weed f[G]all in love?
[D]All the [Em]time, a[G]ll the [C]time
OUTRO
[C]Time together is just never quite enough
[G]When were apart whatever are you thinking of?
[C]What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
[Em]So tell me darling do you [C]wish weed [D]fall in love?
[C]All the time
