[G]
[C] [G]
Live a life less ordinary, live a life extraordinary [C] with me.
[G] Live a life less sedentary, live a life evolutionary [C] with me.
[G]
Well I hate to be a father, but it's you and there's no other [C] I do believe.
You can call me naive, [G] but I know me very well, at least as far as I can tell, and I
[C] know what I need.
[C#] [D] The night you came into my [C] life, well it took the bones of me, took the [D] bones of me.
You blew away my dormant [C] spine, but shook the bones of me, shook the [D] bones of me.
By the way, [C] I do know why [D] you stayed away.
I [C] will keep [Am] talking, [G] it's time.
Live a life less ordinary, live a life extraordinary [C] with me.
[G] My face had said too much before our hands could even touch to [C] greet a hello.
So much for [G] going slow.
A little later on that year I told you that I loved you [C] dear.
What do you know?
This you weren't prepared to hear.
[G] I'm a saddened man, I'm a broken boy, I'm a toddler with a complex [C] toy.
I'm falling apart, there's the ambush on your [D] heart.
The night you came into my [C] life, well it took the bones of me, took the [D] bones of me.
You blew away my dormant [C] spine, but shook the bones of me, shook the [D] bones of me.
By the way, [C] I do know why [D] you stayed away.
I [C] will keep [Am] talking, [G] it's time.
But, honey understand, [C] honey understand, I [G] won't make [C] it back.
[Em] [G] Honey understand, honey [C] understand, [Em] we [G] could walk [D] out of that.
[G] Honey understand, honey, honey [C] understand, [G] I won't rest [C] in scum all [G] alone.
Honey understand, honey [C] understand, [G] I'm all ready [D] to go.
But you [G] already know.
Live a life less ordinary, live [D] a life extraordinary [C] with me.
[Dm]
[G] If I could name you in this song, would it make you smile and sing [C] along?
This is the goal, to get into [G] your soul.
If I could make you dance with joy, could that be the second chance?
To [C] coy the burning hand, I would need to [G] help you understand.
[D] The night you came into my [C] life, well it took the bones of me, took the [D] bones of me.
You blew away my stormy [C] strife, and shook the bones of me, shook the [D] bones of me.
By the way, [C] I do know why [D] you stayed away.
I [C] will keep [A] talking, [G] it's time.
