[Bb]
[Eb] Breathe in [C] for luck, breathe in [Ab] so deep, this air [Bb] is blessed.
[Ab] You share [Eb] with one, this [C] night is wild, so [Ab] calm and dull.
These hearts [Bb] they raise [Ab] from self [Eb]-control.
Your lips [Cm] offering as they [Ab] praise mine will [Bb] do.
When we're doing nothing [Eb] at all.
I also know that your [Gm] kiss might kill me,
so [Ab] won't you kill me, [Gm] I'll be.
[Eb] My heart is yours, we [Gm] fill our thirst, to [Ab] break or bury.
[Gm] Where is jewelry?
Don't [Eb] you prefer the wizard?
Let's [Cm] not get busted, just [Ab] laying twines here, [F]
undiscovered.
[Eb] Taking you from all the [Cm] stupid questions.
Hey, [Ab] did you get some?
Man, [Bb] I just so [Ab] dumb.
[Eb] Stay quiet, [Cm] stay near, stay close to the [Ab] air, right there, [Bb] so we can get some.
[Eb] I also know that your kiss [Gm] might kill me,
[Ab] so won't you kill me, so I [Gm] die happy.
[Eb] My heart is yours, [Gm] we fill our thirst, [Ab] to break or bury.
Where [Gm] is jewelry?
Don't you [Cm] prefer the pen?
Now this is [Ab] the best thing I can [Eb] ever remember.
Oh, we remember the [Cm] sound of the stereo, [Ab] the dim of the starlight,
[Eb] the scent of your hair that [Bb] you rub in your fingers [Cm] and the pot on the top.
When [Ab] we are in trouble, [Eb] we have mixed ones and we share [Bb] together.
[Cm] The streets were wet [Ab] and the gates were blocked, [Eb] so I jumped in and [Bb] I let you in.
And [Cm] you spun your toe, [Ab] your hands on our waist, and [Eb] you kissed me like [Bb] you meant it.
[Cm] I knew [Ab] that you meant it, [Eb] that you meant it, [Bb] that you meant it.
[Cm] And I knew [Ab] that you meant it, [Eb] that you meant it.
