DBm7Bm6/GG9
Guess i wasn't the best one to ask
DBm7Bm6/GG9
me myself with my face pressed up against love's glass
E7susD/F#
to see the shiny toy i've been hoping for
G9A7susA7
the one i never can afford
DBm7
the wide world spins and spits turmoil
Bm6/G#G9
and the nations toil for peace
DBm7
but the paws of fear upon your chest
Bm6/G#G9
only love can soothe that beast
E7susD/F#
and my words are paper tigers
G9A7susA7
no match for the predator of pain inside her
DA/DG9
i say love will come to you
DA/DG9
hoping just because i spoke the words that they're true
Bm7D/AG9
as if I've offered up a crystal ball to look through
A7susA7D
where there's now one there will be two
DBm7Bm6/GG9
i was born under the sign of cancer
DBm7Bm6/GG9
like brushing cloth i smooth the wrinkles for an answer
E7susD/F#
i'm always closing my eyes wishing i'm fine
G9A7susA7
even though i know i'm not this time
DA/DG9
i say love will come to you
DA/DG9
hoping just because i spoke the words that they're true
Bm7D/AG9
as if I've offered up a crystal ball to look through
A7susA7D
where there's now one there will be two
E7susD/F#
dodging your memories a field of knives
G9A7susA7
always on the outside looking in on other's lives
DA/DG9
i say love will come to you
DA/DG9
hoping just because i spoke the words that they're true
Bm7D/AG9
as if i've offered up a crystal ball to look through
A7susA7D
where there's now one there will be two
Bm7G9
and i wish her insight to battle love's blindness
Bm7D/AG9
strength from the milk of human kindness
Bm7D/AE7/G#
a safe place for all the pieces that scattered
G9D/F#EmA7susA7D
learn to pretend there's more than love that matters
