[Verse 1]
[Am]When she's
[G]cur[Eb]led in [Dm]his [Am]arms
[G]
En[F]tangled and [E]warm
She [Am]thinks, some[G]times[Eb]
That it [Dm]can not [Am]last[G]

[Verse 2]
In [Am]the window as the earth goes [G]round
And the air gets [F]thin in the lungs
[E]and the hearts of lonely men
Young [Am]to old pretend
that they [G]live forever
[F]Jewels of the soul [Em]that turn
into the [E]worst terror
[Am]It ain't an error Lord
[G]they brighten the skies
[F]Walking with the light in their
[E]eyes like fireflies
[Am]She hold her love like a statu[G]e pose
And he [F]ain't even got a kiss from a [Em]rose

[Am]One day [G]he'll [Eb]leave

[F]Ability to open her heart
