[Intro]
D, Dsus4, D, Dsus4
[Verse 1]
D G You asked if you could see me before I went to Spain D G You didn't give a reason, didn't know what you would say D G But I was hoping that my breath on your face D G Would blow every last thing into place
[Break]
Em, Bm, G
D The bedspread decked in suns and moons G And symbols of the star signs D G How you read how mine applied to how I would be sex-wise D G And in my arms you disappeared and I seemed twice the size D G Slept and woke with lips together, sleeping felt like lies
[Break]
Bm, D, G, D
D, Dsus4, D, Dsus4 (x4)
[Pre-Chorus]
D Em Girl, I helped you with your demons G D But your ghosts are now haunting me too D Em That French bitch, an ex-boyfriend G D Threatening to tie his neck to the roof Bm D But if we tiptoe through the true bits Bm D G We might make it to the other side Bm D What doesn't kill you leaves you wounded Bm D G D But I will nurse you better, alright
[Chorus]
D A Em D I've been waking on your side of the bed D A G As the sun's been rising in the West D A Em D I've been waking on your side of the bed D A G As the sun's been rising in the West
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
D G If your skin feels softer, I've no argument to make D G The weight of such apologies caused stronger men to ache D G If his kisses draw the bad out, I can't have a complaint D G As they hit your tongue like sedatives while I lay wide awake
[Break]
Em, Bm, G
[Bridge]
D G You can feel a tremor in a single word D G It rattles down your spinal chord D G And you can catch a raincloud in an hourglass D G But it will turn into a storm Bm A G Knee deep in flowers we'll stray, you keep the showers away
[Pre-Chorus]
