Em
My mind is a warrior
Am
My heart is a foreigner

My eyes are the colour of red like a sunset

And left to the hands of the coroner

Be a true heart not a follower
B
We're not done yet
Em
And I see it in your movements tonight
Am
If we should ever do this right
C
I'm never gonna let you down
B
I'll never let you down
Em
And I'm keeping on the down low
Am
And I'll keep you around so I'll know

You're strumming on my heart strings

My eyes are a river filler
Am
This drink is a liver killer
C B
My chest is a pillow for your weary head to lay to rest again
Em
Your body is my ballpoint pen
Am
And your mind is my new best friend
C B
Your eyes are the mirror to take me to the edge again, now
