Well, I heard you were 
             D 
(You were a lion) 
  C                  C 
About how brave you are 
         Em 
Well, I heard you were 
                 D 
You were still trying 
           C                C 
Trying to get back to the start 
       Em                      D 
No we won't let it into the kitchen 
       C                      C 
No we won't let it into the house

I'm gonna miss you, girl

And all of the things we should have done  
     C             Em 
You say I move so fast 
                 D         D 
That you could hardly see 
     C             Em 
You say I move so fast

Cause it's burning our pretty little heart
