[Intro]

Em*

[Verse 1]

    Em*
you showed me my tommorow
  Em*
beside a box of matches
  Em*
a welcome threating stir

Em*

   Em*
my hopes of being stolen
      Em*
might just ring true
                   Em*
depends who you prefer

Em*

[Bridge]

Em                     G
If its true your gonna run away
C                      C*
tell me where ill meet you there

Em C* (x2)

[Verse 2]

     Em*
Am I snapping the excitement?
     Em*
If i pack away the laughter
    Em*
and tell you how it feels

Em*

         Em*
And does burden come to meet ya
       Em*
If ive questions of the feature
     Em*
that rolls on your dream reel

Em*

[Bridge 2]

    Em            G
The day after you stole my heart
     C                       C*                             Em    C*
Everything I touched told me it would be better shared with you

Em C*

[Verse 3]

         Am           Em
And your hiding in my soup
        Am                Em
and the book reveals your face
              Am              Em
and as you're splashing in my eyelids

    Am               Em       Am
the concentration continually breaks
        Em                 Am
I did request the mark you cast
         Em
It didnt heal as fast
  C
I hear your voice in silences
                             C*                 Em     C*
will the teasing of the fire be followed by the thud

Em C*

       Em
In the jostling crowd your not allowed to tell the truth and the photo
         Em*
booths a liar

Em*

        Em*
And the sharpened explanations
    Em*                             Em*
but theres no screaming reason to enquire

Em*

            Em                 G                C
I'd like to poke them in their prying eyes with things theyve never 
seen
C*                         Em
if it smacks them in their temples
