The wine-colored Amair breathing thoughts through your Cadd9hair
breezing to G/Eme, leading me D/F#there

And I Gfind you, twilit beG/Eyond all the cars
In driveways they Amsleep, but streetlights will Cadd9keep watch over G/Eme
They flickers like D/F#stars
And now the Gsecrets carefully G/Ekept inside run the streets Amred,
Our chemicals Cadd9spread, washing us G/Ethrough, making you D/F#mine
[Chorus]

[Verse]

When the streetlights come on,

G/E Am

the pooling light is leveed aside

Cadd9 G/E

And pressed in twilight against our two rooms

D/F#

I'll see you tonight

G G/E

The pavement is aching, cicadas are crying

Am Cadd9

The wine-colored air breathing thoughts through your hair

G/E D/F#

breezing to me, leading me there

[Chorus]

G/E C/G G D/F#

I come alive as the shadows parade

G/E C/G G D/F#

My hot summer blood comes in floods and in waves

G/E Cadd9 G D/F# Cadd9

Curbside confessions, no longer afraid of what you'll say

[Verse]

G G/E

And I find you, twilit beyond all the cars

Am Cadd9 G/E

In driveways they sleep, but streetlights will keep watch over me

D/F#

They flickers like stars

G G/E Am

And now the secrets carefully kept inside run the streets red,

Cadd9 G/E D/F#

Our chemicals spread, washing us through, making you mine

[Chorus]

G/E C/G G D/F#

I come alive as the shadows parade

G/E C/G G D/F#

My hot summer blood comes in floods and in waves

G/E Cadd9 G D/F# Cadd9

Curbside confessions, no longer afraid of what you'll say

Cadd9

[Verse]

G G/E

Now there are no words, only the glow in our wires

Am Cadd9

And so we will be, you turn slow to me

Our lips set the sun (I'll never leave you)

Cadd9

The hills are on fire Oh

[Chorus]

G/E C/G G D/F#

I come alive as the shadows parade.

G/E C/G G D/F#

My hot summer blood comes in floods and in waves.

G/E Cadd9 G D/F# Cadd9

Curbside confessions, no longer afraid of what you'll say.
