Capo 2 Intro: F Dm Am x3 F Dm Am I can only say these things to you while you're sleeping. F Dm Am I hear the the hum from the wires, the sounds of the morning creeping. F Dm Am I lie awake and pretend you can hear me. F Dm Am x2 F Dm Am You tell that you're scared, that you're turning into your mother, F Dm Am I feel myself turn into my father. F Dm Am We could lie to each other like they do and say we're still happy F Dm Am It's easy when you're young and you still want it so badly. Dm C A# And I feel my heart pounding Dm C A# And I think I might scream F C I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear Dm A# I can utter every word you'd ever hope to hear F C Dm I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever. F Dm Am x2 [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-airborne-toxic-event/325127.html ] F Dm Am At night you whisper like a ghost and you look so shaken F Dm Am You're so quiet and small and you tell me you want to be taken. F Dm Am I just never think of you as the kind of girl who would say that. F Dm Am You suddenly seem like some faceless thing in my grasp. Dm C A# With your eyes so wide, your face aglow Dm C A# It’s the face of someone I don't know. F C I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear Dm A# I can utter every word you'd ever hope to hear F C Dm I shudder when I think that I might not be here forever, forever, forever. F Dm Am x7 Dm C A# And all I could think is that it must be a kind of rebellion. Dm C A# To arm your fears like soldiers and slay them. F C I can tell you that you're all I ever wanted, dear Dm A# Through the din of your breathing while you're sleeping here. F C Dm You wake and ask me if I'm going to be here forever, forever, forever. F C Your face so twisted and your eyes alight Dm A# I want to tell you I can change it when you cry at night F C Dm But I'd be lying. F C Dm Love is defying. End on F |
