Misc Originals – Alison Kokorowski - Benediction (Guitar)

Em              C                  G
This shadowed night, this sacred touch

           D                   Em
To me it says but it says too much

             C                   G
I’m holding out, the moon burns red

           D                Am
I tune it out, it remains unsaid

              D
And all that had to feel

                   G
Was dreaming that this was real

               C
What a callow fool

Am                   D
   He’s a master of all the games

                   G
With a handle he pulls the reins

                C
But playing it cool

           Em
But was it me who fell first?

           C
Oh we’ll never know

                Em
And while I’ve tried to move on

         C
It just goes to show…

      G               C
That I’ve made up my mind,

                 G                D
That I’ll never find anyone like you.

       G                    C
Every time it’s your green eyes,

               G                 D
That bring me back to face the truth:

                      Em   C
That I’m addicted to you

                 G   D
I’m addicted to you

                 Em   C   G   D
I’m addicted to you

Em            C                   G
My hopeless heart, it trusts too fast

               D                 Em
Why cling to things, that never last?

               C                G
But you were smooth, your body glows

              D                    Am
Assured and strong, like water you go

               D
Without you I won’t survive,

                   G
And my ship could capsize

                   C
And then it’s too late

Am                    D
   The wreckage sinks to the floor,

                G
Yet I am still here for more

                    C
I’ve sealed my own fate

       Em
And I pray to God

              C
Don’t let it end this way

 Em
Not with this ending

   C
A foul display

      G               C
‘Cus I’ve made up my mind,

                 G                D
That I’ll never find anyone like you.

       G                    C
Every time it’s your green eyes,

               G                D
That bring me back to face the truth:

                 Em  C
I’m addicted to you

                 G   D
I’m addicted to you

                 Em  C   G   D
I’m addicted to you

         Am              Em
Pitiful hell will break loose

              G              D
Without the chance, it’s no use

        Am       Em                 D
Being trapped, yearning to breathe free

             Am            Em
The spell is cast, deed is done

              G               D
It’s one for all and all for one

            Am        Em               D
All that’s left is a wildfire burning free

      G               C
‘Cus I’ve made up my mind,

                 G               D
That I’ll never find anyone like you.

       G                    C
Every time it’s your green eyes,

               G                D
That bring me back to face the truth:

            G                   C
And it was cold that Christmas night

            G           D
I held you tight to no avail

              G            C
Cus what was born now has died

            G                   D
And I will watch your ship set sail

                     Em C
But I’m addicted to you

                    Em C
And you know it’s true

                 Em C
I’m addicted to you

                 Em C
Can you need me too?
