Guitar chords with lyrics
intro:
G
verse:
C
If it was only in our heads, only in our dreams
G
Nothing we ever spoke of, nothing evergreen
C
you know I dreamed we were hunted by lions, bursting for air
so we hid out in the brambles and played like we were dead
G D
never terrified of what that might mean
chorus:
Em C G
Why is it clinging to life, this longing that should now be dead?
Em D G
Why do I need you, feeling your claws in my back?
Em C G
I've got a few ideas and an image of you in my bed
verse:
C
If it was only a mirage, a hopeless scene
G
Nothing close to water, nothing so serene
C
you know I dreamed we were walking a wire across a ravine
locked in on each other and then I hear you scream
G D
but I never saw you open your mouth
chorus:
Em C G
Why is it clinging to life, this longing that should now be dead?
Em D G
Why do I need you, feeling your claws in my back?
Em C G
I've got a few ideas and an image of you in my bed
instrumental:
G C Em D G Em C G
verse:
C
If it was only for the foolish, decision to careen
G
Nothing that you walk from, nothing so clean
C
you know I dreamed of the end of the world, that whole nightmare routine
I found you in the closet with your mother's old tureen
G D
You said there's one fear I had not confirmed
final chorus:
Em C G
Why is it clinging to life, this longing that should now be dead?
Em D G
Why do I need you, feeling your claws in my back?
Em C G
I've got a few ideas and an image of you in my bed
