[Verse 1]
        DmI can't wait to get you Gmhome and A#touch your face again,
        DmOf all the pleasures of the Gmworld an' I A#wake up in a dream,
        DmAnd I Gmknow that you need A#more than what I've got,
        DmAnd GmI will back you A#up no matter what,
       'Cause I can't wait for you to feel the power you receive,
        when you're movin' on your own and you know which way to go,
        An' I know that you'll get more than just a ride,
        But life is not the ferris wheel,

        DmI'll walk you through the blows, Gmbe there when you feel the A#need,
       'Cause it's not Dmjust what you choose to tell me,
        it's not Gmjust what you choose to withA#hold,

Dm Gm A#

[Intro] x4

[Verse 1]

Dm Gm A#

I can't wait to get you home and touch your face again,

Dm Gm A#

Of all the pleasures of the world an' I wake up in a dream,

Dm Gm A#

And I know that you need more than what I've got,

Dm Gm A#

And I will back you up no matter what,

'Cause I can't wait for you to feel the power you receive,

when you're movin' on your own and you know which way to go,

An' I know that you'll get more than just a ride,

But life is not the ferris wheel,

[Chorus]

Dm Gm A#

Everyone I know, gonna get their share of beatings,

Dm Gm A#

I'll walk you through the blows, be there when you feel the need,

'Cause it's not just what you choose to tell me,

Gm A#

it's not just what you choose to withhold,

and it's not just what looks good on paper,

Gm A#

it's how the story feels while it is being told,

Dm Gm A#

The horror that's embedded in my heart
