[Verse]
F
If these shoes could tell the tales
C
The miles walked tryin' to get back to you
Am
Gettin’ drunk and starin' at the mo-oon
C
What on earth are you out there doin'
Dm
Cause when you slid my necklace clasp
Am G
To the back of my neck
Dm
Oh, tingle, I should have kissed you
Am G
When our eyes met
Am
Doesn’t she look lovely right there?
G
Best to leave it, I suppose
Am
You ran your fingers through my hair
G
And I felt it in my bones
F
I'd be a skeleton for you
C
Ribcage sunken through
F
I'd be a skeleton for you
C
Narrow white and shadow blue
Am G C F C
I'd be a skeleton
Am G C F C
I'd be a skeleton
F
If these hands had a voice
C
They'd talk only of the night they'd held you
Am G
In a dorm room, cheeks flushing red as my blood
Am
We'll keep quiet not to stir the dust
G
The circumstance surrounding us
F C
The whisper, don’t leave the tune
F C G
That we have built right here
F
I’d be a skeleton for you
C
Ribcage sunken through
F
I'd be a skeleton for you
C
Narrow white and shadow blue
Am G C F C
I’d be a skeleton
Am G C F C
I'd be a skeleton
Am
It's all just 'what ifs’ and guesses
C
Streetlamp confessions
Dm
If I took a left turn 'round
C
I think I'd wind up at your house
Am
You'd like to stay up late drawin'
C
You told me once you thought it calmin'
G
Maybe I'll turn out to see
Dm
Maybe you're brittle like me
Am
Maybe you're brittle like me
G
Think I'll turn out to see
Dm Am
Maybe you're brittle like me
Dm Am
Maybe you're brittle like me
