What It Feels Like
View chords used in this chart
Intro
D A F#m E
[Verso 1]
D A
You look hot in your cropped bikini kilt top and converse
D A
I look fucked with my shirt ripped up and one pair of jeans
D A
But you told me to talk to myself in the mirror a bit softer
D A
When we're standing there in our underwear getting ready to leave
[Refrão]
D A
So ask me what falling in love with you feels like
F#m
It's like music it's like sleep and it's like air
E D A
Nothing you'd ever really quite have control of
F#m E
But you'd start to lose your mind if it wasn't there
[Verso 2]
D A
I had a dream you were basking in the breeze on the balcony
D A
Holding your coffee cup close and watching the raindrops fall
D A
When I stepped out in my socks you turned and touched me
D A
And I realized I wasn't dreaming after all
[Refrão]
D A
So ask me what falling in love with you feels like
F#m E
It's when every light on sunset turns to green
D A
And you're not quite sure what you did to deserve it
F#m E
But we're not meant to know everything
[Verso 3]
D
You got a school
A
ID that's tucked in the sleeve of your wallet
D
You took that picture around the time
A
I took my first breath
D A
We both agreed there had to be some deeper meaning
D A
Behind you placing it in your pocket the night we met
[Refrão]
D A
So ask me what falling in love with you feels like
F#m E
It's like trying to match the pace at which you breathe
D
And when it lines up perfectly
A F#m E
I realize That you're also trying to match yours up to me
