*
   Em
   *

                   Em
                   *

[Bridge]
Em                     G
If its true your gonna run away
C                     C
                      *

EmC
 * (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

[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
EmC
 *
[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
EmC
 *
       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
