Intro: Db A E Db
Db A
Kiss the nape, of my back

And lay me down in the silence.

Halfway in, turns to violence.

I love you

Young blind and dumb

And you love me

Upside and down
F#m A Db A
Still darling, still we can be 17
Db A
Feels like the day, that we met

The bite of frost, on the sidewalk

The morning glare, the nervous calm

The need to touch, the fear to talk

Oh I love you

The floor creaks, in a Chorus

How was your day? I missed your face

But I light up when that door opens

I hate Wisconsin; the heater's broken

I miss my home on the Pacific

But I'll push through it, we all get homesick

But this is home now, 'cause you're in it.
