Chords

Written by: Eric Andserson [Verse]
 C               F
Take me to the night I'm tippin'

 C            F                 C
Topsy-turvy, turnin' upside-down

 C                 F                C
Hold me tight and whisper what you wish for

          F               C F
There is no one here around

 F                 G
You may sing song my sweet smiles

  C                 F              G
Regardless of the cities careless frown

                  C
Come watch the no-colours fade

 F           C               F             C F
Blazing into petal sprays of violets of dawn
[Verse]
 C                        F                 C
Some prince charming I'll be, on two white steeds

             F                   C F
To give you dappled diamond crowns

 C                     F
And climb your towers sleeping beauty

 C              F                     C F
'Fore you know I've ever left the ground

 F             G            C
You can wear a Cinderella, Snow-White

     F              G
Alice Wonderland gown

                  C
Come watch the no-colours fade

 F           C               F             C F
Blazing into petal sprays of violets of dawn
C F [Verse]
 C                F             C
But if I seem to wander off in dream-like looks

       F                   C
Please let me settle slowly

                    F             C
It's only me just staring out at you

           F                    C F
A seeming stranger speaking holy

 F               G
I don't mean to wake you up

    C             F              G
It's only loneliness just coming on

                  C
Come watch the no-colours fade

 F           C               F             C F
Blazing into petal sprays of violets of dawn
[Verse]
 C               F
Take me to the night I'm tippin'

 C            F                 C
Topsy-turvy, turnin' upside-down

 C                 F                C
Hold me tight and whisper what you wish for

          F               C F
There is no one here around

 F                    G
There's magic in the sleepiness

    C            F                G
Of waking to a childish sounding yawn

                  C
Come watch the no-colours fade

 F           C               F             C F
Blazing into petal sprays of violets of dawn
