verse 1 
 N.C. 
And so...  
     Am                          C  
The chemicals collide in some location just outside  
                  E                                 F  
the place where things like love and fear and rage are formed.  
          Am                              C  
Coursing through each vein and artery to nerves in every part of me  
        E                           F  
that struggle to interpret all the combinations formed.  
       Am                                  C 
And reactions come off mixed: my jaw is slack, my muscles tense  
         E                           F 
and my heart begins its struggle to break free  
          Am                            C 
from the cage of my own chest in an attempt to come to rest  
                E                                 F 
somewhere it's certain that your heart will also be  
 
F                        Am 
We're tornadoes when we dance  
                                 F 
high winds concealed in slow romance  
                              Am  
uproot the world beneath our paths  
                         F 
uncover Heaven with our hands  

verse 2 
      Am                                    C 
The magicians in your eyes make the world disappear from mine  
                E                          F 
they make the weight of life vacation for awhile.  
               Am                           C 
And while the music in your kiss begins to sing the minor 5th  
           E                           F 
our fingertips conduct a symphony in style.  
            Am                               C 
And by the second movement in, houses are whistling in our wind  
               E                                F 
branches are snapping in our spin and skin is twisting against skin  
           Am                              C 
and I am flying, so it seems, foundations bursting at the seams  
            E                          F 
the sky is manic with our song, I am frantic, we are strong.  
  
F                        Am 
We're tornadoes when we dance  
                                 F 
high winds concealed in slow romance  
                              Am  
uproot the world beneath our paths  
                         F 
uncover Heaven with our hands
