Capotraste 1ª casa
Tom: Em
Em
When I woke
G
I took the backdoor to my mind
Em
and then I spoke
G
I counted all of the good things you are
Am
and that list of charms was
C Bmaj7
longer than my chain of broken hearts
Am
and when the day was done
C Bmaj7
I figured I had already lost
A D D7 D7sus4
from the start, from the start
G
I was gonna love you till the end of all daytime
C
and I was gonna keep all our secret signs and our lullabies
A D D7
I was made to believe that our love would grow old
G
we were gonna live in a treehouse and make babies
C
and we were gonna bury our ex-lovers and their ghosts
A D D7 D7sus4
baby we were made of gold
Em
so many times
G
we drank fine wine in one swallow
Em
and in those late nights
G
we painted our walls bright yellow
Am
and that list of charms was
C Bmaj7
longer than my chain of broken hearts
Am
and when the day was done
C Bmaj7
I figured I had already lost
A D D7 D7sus4
from the start, from the start
G
I was gonna love you till the end of all daytime
C
and I was gonna keep all our secret signs and our lullabies
A D D7
I was made to believe that our love would grow old
G
we were gonna live in a treehouse and make babies
C
and we were gonna bury our ex-lovers and their ghosts
A D D7 D7sus4
baby we were made of gold
