[Intro]
NONE
[Chorus] - (For this first Chorus play single strums only)
Am C
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Dm F
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Am C G Fmaj7
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on
Am C
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Dm F
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
Am C G Fmaj7
I don't wanna fight with you, baby, but I won't leave you alone
[Verse]
Am C
The night was young once, we were the wild ones
Dm F
Before we had to pay attention to the violence
Am C Dm F
Anything could happen but nothing ever really did
Am C
I wanted action, she wanted answers
Dm F
Sunrise with the dealers and the dancers
Am C Dm F
It takes a whole lot of medicine to feel like a little kid
[Chorus]
Am C
Oh, and did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Dm F
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Am C G F
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on
Am C
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Dm F
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
Am C G F
I don't wanna fight with you, baby, but I won't leave you alone
[Verse]
Am C
Who's gonna save you? Who's left to pray to?
Dm Fmaj7
What's the difference in a breakdown and a breakthrough?
Am C Dm Fmaj7
I saw her in the moonlight digging up the garden bed
Am C
I wanna hold her until it's over
Dm Fmaj7
Let her sleep through the morning on my shoulder
Am C G Fmaj7
But there's nothin' I could say to her that I ain't already said
[Chorus]
Am C
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Dm Fmaj7
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Am C G Fmaj7
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on
Am C
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Dm F
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
Am C G F F
I don't wanna fight with you, baby, but I won't leave you alone
[Break]
C F
When your words mean nothing
When the world turns to monochrome
C F
And you know she's not bluffing
G Am C
'Cause you feel it in your booo-ones
[Instrumental/Solo]
Dm F Am C Dm Fmaj7
Feel it in your boooooooones
[Chorus]
Am C
Oh, and did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Dm Fmaj7
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Am C G Fmaj7
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on
Am C
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Dm Fmaj7
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
Am C G Fmaj7
I don't wanna fight with you, baby, but I won't leave you alone
Am C
I wanna hold her until it's over
Dm Fmaj7
I wanna hold her until it's over
Am C
Oh I wanna hold her until it's over
Dm
I wanna hold her
Fmaj7
I wanna hold her
Am
I wanna hold her
C
Until it's over
Dm Fmaj7
I wanna hold her until it's over
Am C
Oh, I wanna hold her until it's over
[Outro]

Dm Fmaj7 Am
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
I don't wanna fight with you, baby, but I won't leave you alone
The night was young once, we were the wild ones
Before we had to pay attention to the violence
Anything could happen but nothing ever really did
I wanted action, she wanted answers
Sunrise with the dealers and the dancers
It takes a whole lot of medicine to feel like a little kid
Oh, and did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
I don't wanna fight with you, baby, but I won't leave you alone
Who's gonna save you? Who's left to pray to?

Let her sleep through the morning on my shoulder
But there's nothin' I could say to her that I ain't already said
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
I don't wanna fight with you, baby, but I won't leave you alone
When your words mean nothing
When the world turns to monochrome
And you know she's not bluffing
'Cause you feel it in your bones
You feel it in your bones
Oh, and did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
I don't wanna fight with you, baby, but I won't leave you alone
I wanna hold her until it's over
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
I wanna hold her until it's over
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Oh, I wanna hold her until it's over
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
I wanna hold her, I wanna hold her
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
I wanna hold her until it's over
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
I wanna hold her until it's over
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Oh, I wanna hold her until it's over
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
