Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]What, what would[Gsus4] I do
If I can't [Am]have you[Dm]
[C]If I can[D]'t have you[Am][C]
[F]What, [Am]what[D][Am]
[Csus2]If I can't have y[F#dim]ou[D][C]

[Verse 2]
[Am]Here, here I [G]am[Gsus4]
On this black [D]river[Am][Gsus4]
[D]Dotted in [F#dim]time[D][Gsus4]
[C]And the[F] man[Am]groves
[D]They grow[Am][D][Am][C]
[D]Like our [F#dim]love[Am][C]
[Cm]Stronger

[Verse 3]
[Am]than [E]the[Am] tim[F#dim]e
[Am]spent[F#dim][D]
[Am]Down in the valley be[C]low
[Csus2]

[Verse 4]
[C]Tak[Am]e, take my hand
[Gsus4]And push to t[Am]he side[F]
[Csus2]And come in side[F#dim][Am][C]
And your [F]hair [Am]it grows
[F#dim]Around yo[D]ur [Am]ears[C]
Like a [D]mysterious [F#dim]pose[D][Am][C]
That's [Cm]mu si[Am]c
To my [F#dim]fears,
[D]that wil[Am]l follow the yea[D]rs
[Am]Down to the valley be[C]low[Csus2]

[Verse 5]
[A]Why did you come in the [Dm]night
You hardly [A]like me
You like people [C]strong
[A]and free
That's not like [Dm]me
I am caged [A]in chains
Of my own [C]sad [A]nature
[Am]How do you change [Gsus4]so fast
Like my [G]face in the [D]looking glass
I hardly [Csus2]re cog ni[Gsus4]ze it[Csus2][C]

[Outro 1]
[F]
[Am][F#dim][Am][C][D][C][Am]
[F][C]
