AAimee,       A7you fDound meDm  
In the woAods Like you shoA7uld Like they dDo in all those Dmbooks you read
But never lAearn  You just dA7ream    You just Ddread  You just Dmdrown me out
With the woArds and the worlds A7That swirl in your DheadDm  
And my magaAzines burA7n all the Dpeople they turn  DmInto monsters
But jAust for a second and they're A7dead and they'll leaDve the earth    DmLike Ame
C{reA#peaAt 3}
And AAimee, A7You foDund meDm  
On the globAe and then you act surpriA7sed like you didn't Dknow Dm  
That we crossed lAines   We meet hA7ere   But only oDne of us would be Dmspeaking
And its not Ame  It's not yA7ou  It's these trDees above us creDmaking
And I am onAe with the roA7ots,  with the Dair you breathe Dmsee 
I asked to be reAturned Like the A7people on the pages of youDr magazinDmes  Like they buArn
C{reA#peaAt 3}
So cut me down  AYou built a hoA7use around yourself Dwith my fleshDm  
Cause I was alAways at least threA7e steps ahead of youD  Dm  
With one screw lAoose  And it's only A7used to out live DmeDm  
Oh, so Ahere Cit A#isA.

A A7 D Dm

Aimee, you found me

A A7 D Dm

In the woods Like you should Like they do in all those books you read

A A7 D Dm

But never learn You just dream You just dread You just drown me out

A A7 D Dm

With the words and the worlds That swirl in your head

A A7 D Dm

And my magazines burn all the people they turn Into monsters

A A7 D Dm A

But just for a second and they're dead and they'll leave the earth Like me

C A# A

{repeat 3}

A A7 D Dm

And Aimee, You found me

A A7 D Dm

On the globe and then you act surprised like you didn't know

A A7 D Dm

That we crossed lines We meet here But only one of us would be speaking

A A7 D Dm

And its not me It's not you It's these trees above us creaking

A A7 D Dm

And I am one with the roots, with the air you breathe see

A A7 D Dm A

I asked to be returned Like the people on the pages of your magazines Like they burn

C A# A

{repeat 3}

A A7 D Dm

So cut me down You built a house around yourself with my flesh

A A7 D Dm

Cause I was always at least three steps ahead of you

A A7 D Dm

With one screw loose And it's only used to out live me

A C A# A

Oh, so here it is.

C A# A

{repeat 3}
