Chords

[Verse 1]
D
Do you want me to write you in
Dust off all your features
         A
Make you perfect

             G
Not that you need it
You’re effortlessly illustrated
 A
Colourfully fated for my pen
[Verse 2]
               D
I can show you how
The world is so much brighter when
                   A
The writer gets to turn it

                                                 G
I’ll give you wings although you say you don’t deserve it
You were definitely made
              A
For felt tip sonnets that I’ve kept in way too long
[Pre-Chorus 1]
      Bm
And I know

           G
That paper hearts are fast to break

             Bm
So don’t you go

A
Away
[Chorus]
      D
Oh my god, I think you’ve really done it this time

      Bm                                  A
Oh my god, don’t think that I can make it back

              Bm
But could you hold on just a little

        G
While I sequence all my scribbles

     D                                   A
Into novels filled with stars I’ll never send

                         G              Gm
'Cause I’m essentially a write-er-er-er-erer

                          D
Who never makes it to the end
[Verse 3]
     D
It's picturesque you’re nothing less

                                A
Than a hero from a storybook or five

                                                     G
Think you were made for filling hearts and shoes and time
Think I was made so I could do you justice
 A
Don’t trust anybody else
To write you half as well as I [Pre-Chorus 2]
     Bm
Will try-y-y-y-y

            G
To find the perfect shade of emerald

         Bm          A
For your ey-y-y-y-ye eyes
[Chorus]
D
Oh my god, I think you’ve really done it this time

      Bm                                  A
Oh my god, don’t think that I can make it back

              Bm
But could you hold on just a little

        G
While I sequence all my scribbles

     D                                   A
Into novels filled with stars I’ll never send

                         G              Gm
'Cause I’m essentially a write-er-er-er-erer

                          D
Who never makes it to the end
[Bridge]
     G
And maybe when it’s over

         Bm
When the final page is turned

             D
You won’t be perfect

        A
Just be you

                  G                                D
The boy who likes bands with stupid names and high-brow views

    G
And maybe when I’m finished

          Bm
I’ll look down at the image

        D             A                 G
Oh, and magic will be seeping from your finger tips

          D
Somehow I doubt it
[Pre-Chorus 3]
            Bm
'Cause I’ll never not believe in you

     G
I’ll always see your best

       Bm
Loving you is a religion

    A
I’m devout I must confess
[Chorus]
D
Oh my god, I think you’ve really done it this time

      Bm                                  A
Oh my god, don’t think that I can make it back

              Bm
But could you hold on just a little

        G
While I sequence all my scribbles

     D                                   A
Into novels filled with stars I’ll never send

                         G              Gm
'Cause I’m essentially a write-er-er-er-erer

                          D
Who never makes it to the end
