[Verse]
C majorC FF
Chasing down a wild fire,
C majorC FF
Are you trying to make a cold liar out of me?
C majorC FF
You wanna get high,
C majorC FF
You'll overcome those desires before you come to me.
[Chorus]
Dm7Dm7 Em7/G (E7sus4E7sus4)
I know your mama's kinda sad
Dm7Dm7 Em7/G (E7sus4E7sus4)
And your papa's kinda mean
Dm7Dm7 Em7/G (E7sus4E7sus4)
I can take it all away
Dm7Dm7 Em7/G
You can stop playing that shit out on me
C majorC FF (x2)

[Verse]
C majorC FF
She keeps a pen behind her ear because
C majorC FF
she’s got something she really really needs to say
C majorC FF
She puts it in a notepad,
C majorC FF
she’s gonna write a book someday
Dm7Dm7 Em7/G (E7sus4E7sus4)
Of course the only part that I want to read

Is about her time spent with me

Wouldn't you die to know how you seem
Dm7Dm7 Em7/G
Are you getting away with who you're trying to be

Trying, trying to be

Of course there's things upon the earth that we must really try to defend
C majorC FF
A augmentedA lonely beast, a kind heart,
C majorC FF
Or something weak and untrained
Dm7Dm7 Em7/G (E7sus4E7sus4)
I'd do it all for her, for free
Dm7Dm7 Em7/G (E7sus4E7sus4)
I need nothing back for me
Dm7Dm7 Em7/G (E7sus4E7sus4)
There ain't no sweeter deed, maybe
Dm7Dm7 Em7/G
Than to love something enough to wanna help it get free
C majorC FF (x2)
Freeeee...

When I don't know I'm being seen

Maybe someday when God takes me away

I'll understand what the fuck that means
[Chorus]
