[Intro] G Em C G Dadd11 C [Verse 1]
G                Em
[tab]C                        G     Dadd11 C
there's nothing that you hide

G                Em
When I smell you breathing

C                        G       Dadd11 C
there's a sweetness from inside

G                   Em
And when I feel you stirring

C                       G     Dadd11 C
and the day is about to break

G                 Em
Outside wings are worrying

C                       G     Dadd11 C
and the sky is there to take

C              G
I wonder how I got so close to you

G                            Am
and see the chances that you take

C                    G
Without thinking I'm going there too

G                          D
these are the promises you make

C                  G
When your eyes are blinded by love

G                 D
and the history a fate
[Interlude] G Em C G Dadd11 C [Verse 2]
G               Em
When I hear you purring

C                   G     Dadd11 C
like a kitten and a lion

G               Em
And I feel your softness

C                      G     Dadd11 C
how you got it without trying

G                 Em
Then you roll and tumble

C                              G   Dadd11 C
with your dreams still holding on

G               Em
And I hear that rumble

C                     G     Dadd11 C
in the stomach of the dawn

C                  G
Today I made my masterpiece

G                  Am
tonight I trace my tears

C                    G
Thinking through my path to you

G                                D
and where I stumbled through the years
[Solo] G Em C G Dadd11 C G Em C G Dadd11 C G [Chorus]
C                G
Today I made my masterpiece

G                  Am
tonight I trace my tears

C                    G
Thinking through the road I took to you

G                              D
and how I stumbled through the years

C                      G
That's when I knew I'd never hold you down

G                       D
Repeating old roads and fears
[Verse 3]
G                 Em
Now the crows are calling

C                             G     Dadd11 C
and the blackbirds sing in my ear

G               Em
You got one eye open

C                           G     Dadd11 C
and I am smiling through my tears

G                Em
But you'll never see them

C                      G     Dadd11 C
they're inside with my fears

G                 Em
In a place that's fading away

C                 G
and taking on new years
[Outro] C G G D C G G D G Em C G Dadd11 C G Em C G
