[Intro]
C Amadd9 C Amadd9
[Verse 1]
C Amadd9 G Came to light on a very hot day G/F# F The grass was sweating, you were sleeping in Em With the window open and the blanket breathing C Amadd9 Cigarette on a golden ashtray G G/F# F Your golden hair lay in the swollen sun ray Em The withered roses hanging in the doorway
[Chorus]
C G Amadd9 Don't wanna be right, don't wanna be let down Em Don't wanna fight, don't wanna pretend F Formless secret Am G Am G Heavy bend, heavy bend
[Verse 2]
C Amadd9 Second sight and the clouds above you G G/F# As the wilderness grew thicker and the crow flеw F Em Tossing and turning, your forehead burning
[Chorus]
C G Amadd9 Don't wanna be right, don't wanna bе let down Em Don't wanna fight, don't wanna defend F Formless secret Am G Heavy bend C G Amadd9 From the empty height, flies on the ceiling now Em I wanna hold you tight, don't wanna pretend F Formless secret Am G Am G Am G Heavy bend, heavy bend, heavy bend
