D          C         Bm       G 
I broke into your house last night, 
D          C         Bm       G 
And left a note at your bedside, 
D            C              Bm     G 
I'm far too shy to speak to you at school, 
D             C           Bm       G 
You leave me numb and i'm not sure why, 
 
Bridge: D Em Bm G
 
D          C        Bm       G 
I find it easier to sit and stare, 
D           C        Bm              G 
Than push my limbs out towards you out there, 
D           C                 Bm     G 
My heart is bursting in your perfect eyes, 
D          C              Bm     G 
As blue as oceans and as pure as skies, 
 
 
F                   G                  D 
I struggle for the words and then give up, 
F                   G                D 
My heads up with the birds on the t-hut, 
F                   G              D 
A little piece of mind that i know better, 
F                   G             D 
Than the plain disgrace of all my letters, 
 
Bridge: D Em Bm G 
 
D          C         Bm          G 
After that the floodgates opened up, 
D             C              Bm    G 
And i fell in love with everyone i saw, 
D                 C              Bm  G 
Please take your time i'm not in any rush, 
D          C            Bm   G 
And its in everything I ever write 
 
F               G              D 
Its not as if i need the extra weight, 
F                   G               D 
Confused enough by life so thanks a lot, 
F                 G            D 
Lonely written words for company, 
F                        G               D 
Just raise the roof this once and follow me, 
 
 
Bridge(x4)
