Intro 2x

Am D7 f# G |
If I'm to escape from this |Verse A 2x
Am D7 f# G |
From you I will need a kiss
G G D7 G |
Slip me the key with your tongue |Verse B 1x
C C D7 G |
And the breath that I crave from your lungs

Am D7 f# G
Cause I've laughed in the face of it
Am D7 f# G
But gravity never quits
G G D7 G
A vanishing I will be
[C] With in[C]visible[D7] strings you'll[G] see

Interlude (Verse A 2x)

Am D7 f# G
Then I heard a gentle rain
Am D7 f# G
But it was just you in the bath
G G D7 G
In the water your skin did glow
[C] As [C]I untied[D7] the knots to[G]o slow

Am D7 f# G
If I'm to escape from this
Am D7 f# G
From you I will need a kiss
G G D7 G
Slip me the key with your tongue
[C] And the [C]breath that I[D7] crave from y[G]our lungs
G G D7 G
And the breath that I crave from your lungs

End on:
G D7 G
