Guitar chords with lyrics

  • Difficulty: Beginner
Key: C

Verse 1:
F       Am  C        G
A place in the city, a chair in the bed
F     Am            C     G
I cover up all the mirrors, I can't see myself yet
F          Am
I wear smoke like a wedding veil
C          G
Make a meal I won’t eat
     F        Am       C
Step out into the street, alone in a sea
     G
It comes over me
    F
Oh, I'm missing you
     C
Yeah, I'm missing you
  G
And all the things we used to do
🎸

Chorus:
F        Am           C
MDMA in the back garden, blow our pupils up
                  G
We kissed for hours straight, well baby, what was that?
F           Am             C
I remember saying then, "This is the best cigarette of my life"
     G         F
Well, I want you just like that
            Am              C
Indio haze, we're in a sandstorm, and it knocks me out
               G
I didn't know then that you'd never be enough for me
F           Am
Since l was seventeen, I gave you everything
   C
Now, we wake from a dream
   G       F
Well, baby, what was that?

F Am C G

Post-Chorus:
     F   Am C
What was that?
G        F
Baby, what was that?

Verse 2:
F            Am
Do you know you're still with me
C          G
When I'm out with my friends?
F       Am         C       G
I stare at the painted faces that talk current affairs
F            Am
You had to know this was happening
C           G
You weren't feeling my heat
     F             Am        C
When I'm in the blue light, down to be myself right
      G
I face reality
F
I tried (I tried)
  C
To let (To let)
G        F           Am
Whatever has to pass through me, pass through
      C          G
But this is still a problem, I know
  F
It might not let me go

Chorus:
F        Am           C
MDMA in the back garden, blow our pupils up
                  G
We kissed for hours straight, well baby, what was that?
F           Am             C
I remember saying then, "This is the best cigarette of my life"
     G         F
Well, I want you just like that
            Am              C
Indio haze, we're in a sandstorm, and it knocks me out
               G
I didn't know then that you'd never be enough for me
F           Am
Since l was seventeen, I gave you everything
   C
Now, we wake from a dream

Post-Chorus:
    G       F   Am C G
Well, baby, what was that?
        F   Am C G
What was that?
              F
'Cause I want you just like that
                 Am        C G
(When I'm in the blue light, I can make it alright)
     F
What was that?
                 Am        C
(When I'm in the blue light, I can make it alright)
G       F
Baby, what was that?
