    D - Em - F#m - G (2x)

 

    D                C           Bm            G

1.     I broke into your house last night,

D                   C         Bm        G

    and left a note at your bedside.

D                     C                    Bm           G

    I'm far too shy to speak to you at school,

D                          C                  Bm           G

    you leave me numb and I'm not sure why,

 

+ D - Em - F#m - G (2x)

 

    D              C           Bm         G

2.     I find it easier to sit and stare,

D                        C                           Bm          G

    than push my limbs out towards you out there.

D                      C                     Bm       G

    My heart is bursting in your perfect eyes,

D                    C                     Bm          G

    as blue as oceans and as pure as skies.

 

          F                     G                            D

    I struggle for the words and then give up,

            F                           G                   D

    my head’s up with the birds on the t-hut.

        F                    G                        D

    A little piece of mind that I know better,

       F                         G                   D

    than the plain disgrace of all my letters.

 

+ D - Em - F#m - G (2x)

 

     D             C                         Bm        G

3.      After that the floodgates opened up,

D                     C                   Bm      G

    and I fell in love with everyone I saw.

D                              C                    Bm  G

    Please take your time I'm not in any rush,

D                  C                Bm      G

    and it’s in everything I ever write.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

           F               G                     D

    It’s not as if I need the extra weight,

           F                         G                       D

    confused enough by life, so thanks a lot.

      F                      G                     D

    Lonely written words for company,

            F                          G                       D

    just raise the roof this once and follow me,

 

 

+ D - Em - F#m - G (4x)

 

          F                     G                             D

    I struggle for the words and then give up,

            F                           G                   D

    my head’s up with the birds on the t-hut.

        F                    G                        D

    A little piece of mind that I know better,

       F                         G                   D

    than the plain disgrace of all my letters.
