I brought poppy seeds to a gun fight.

 I put a match to an electric tea light

 I feel your heart beating in your hair

 Drinking fresh milk at the county fair
Em            A                       D           A
 Now everything else at the moment.
Em        A                   D       A
 Is just slowly stealing focus
Em      A               D       A
 And I open like a lotus
GmE                   D               A
 Enlightened and completely hopeless

F#b                   E                  A               D
Huddled 'round burnin' while looking for love
