Chords

[Intro] B E B E [Verse 1]
       B                       E
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful

B                       F#     E
Stop me and steal my breath

       B                       E
And emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky

B                       F#     E
Never revealing their depth
[Pre-chorus]
     B   F#      E            F#
And tell me that we belong together

B           F#         E           F#
Dress it up with the trappings of love

     B       F#           E              F#
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips

B                            F#                      E
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
[Chorus]
     B        E
And I'll be your cryin' shoulder

B              F#    E
I'll be love's suicide

     B        E
And I'll be better when I'm older

B             F#      E            B     F#     E
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
[Verse 2]
     B  (mute)  E
And rain falls angry on the tin roof

   B                   F#         E
As we lie awake in my bed

     B                         E
And you're my survival, you're my living proof

  B                        F#      E
My love is alive, and not dead
[Pre-chorus]
    B    F#       E              F#
And tell me that we belong together

B          F#           E          F#
Dress it up with the trappings of love

     B      F#            E              F#
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips

B                           F#                       E
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
[Chorus]
     B        E
And I'll be your cryin' shoulder

B              F#    E
I'll be love's suicide

     B        E
And I'll be better when I'm older

B             F#      E            B
I'll be the greatest fan of your life
[Bridge]
       G#m                          F#                          E
And I dropped out, I burned up, I fought my way back from the dead

   G#m                       F#                         E       F#
I tuned in, I turned on, remembered the thing that you said
[Chorus]
     B        E
And I'll be your cryin' shoulder

B              F#    E
I'll be love's suicide

     B        E
And I'll be better when I'm older

B             F#      E
I'll be the greatest fan of your

B        E
I'll be your cryin' shoulder

B              F#    E
I'll be love's suicide

     B        E
And I'll be better when I'm older

B             F#      E           B
I'll be the greatest fan of your life

      F#      E           B
The greatest fan of your life
