"Perfect Night:Live In London"!
[Intro]
E
[Verse]
E She's out of her mind G Amaj7 Like the wind in the storm Cm Oh, like the ocean at dawn Cm7 E As it disappears, with the riptide
[Verse]
E She's out with the tide G Amaj7 She's pulled away by the moon Cm She's ripped from her sleep Cm7 E As the cold in the street gains control
[Chorus]
D Em Ah, what you gonna do with your emotions? C Ones you barely recognize D . Em In your sleep I heard your screaming, ah ah C "This is not voluntary!
This is not voluntary!
D If this is life I'd rather die!" G G/F# G/F In the riptide
[Verse]
E She's out of her mind G Amaj7 Ooh, baby, like muscle that swells Cm You know when you trip Cm7 Whether you're well or sick E Your body aches
[Verse]
E She's out with the tide G . Amaj7 Gone to a prisoner's dance Cm There are monkey's who date Cm7 . E Eating limbs off a plate with a spoon
[Chorus]
D Em Ah, what you gonna do with your emotions? C Said the seagull to the loon D Em What you gonna do with your emotions? C She said "Please wake me up"
"Oh, baby, don't ya touch me now"
She said "I wish I was dead"
G G/F# G/F In the riptide
[Verse]
E She's out of her mind G Amaj7 A riptide, you always win Cm It happens over and over again Cm7 E Ah ah, riptide E She's out of her mind G Amaj7 It's like a hurricane's rain Cm She doesn't stand a chance Cm7 E At this lunar dance, riptide
[Chorus]
D Em I was thinking of Van Gogh's last painting C The wheatfields and the crow D Em Is that perhaps what you've Em You've been feeling C When you see the ground
As you fall in from the sky
As the floors disappears
From beneath your feet
D Riptide, riptide G G/F# G/F But she's going out of her mind
[Chorus]
E G She's going out of her mind Amaj7 Cm With the riptide Cm7 Out of her mind E With the riptide
