C5 A5 F5 E5 G5
Headlights... before me
E5 A5 F5
So beautiful, so clear
C5 A5 F5 E5 G5
Reach out... and take it
E5 A5 F5
Cos I'm so ti-red of all this f-ear
(bass line)
My tongue is lost, oh, I can't tell you
Please just see it in my eyes

I pull up thorns from our ripped bodies
A8 B8 G8
And let the blood fall in my mouth
