Candles

[Intro] Am  G  C

Am        G             C
That boy, take me away, into the 
night
Am           G                    
Out of the hum of the street lights 
 C
and into a forest
Am        G             C
I'll do whatever you say to me in 
the dark
Am                      G        
Scared I'll be torn apart by a 
     C
wolf in mask
            G                  C
A familiar name on a birthday card

( Am  G  C )

Am                         G     
Blow out all the candles, blow 
                 C
out all the candles
C                            Am
"You're too old to be so shy,"
Am              G           C
He says to me so I stay the night
Am                  G        
Just a young heart confusing my 
       C
mind,
C
But we're both in silence
Am    G   C
Wide-eyed, both in silence
Am   G     C                     
Wide-eyed, like we're in a crime

scene

( G  C )

            Am                G
Well I have brittle bones it seems
           C                   Am
I bite my tongue and torch my dreams
        C                Am
Have a little voice to speak with
       C                   Am
And a mind of thoughts and secrecy
G               C
Things cannot be reversed,
    Am                       G
We learn from the times that we are 
cursed
Am                 G
Things cannot be reversed,
    Am                     G
We learn from the ones we fear the 
worst
    Am                      G
And learn from the ones we hate the 
most

Wide-eyed

Cause we both know I'll never be

 your lover

I only bring the heat
Am       G     C
Company under cover
Am       G             C
Filling space in your sheets

Well I'll never be a lover
Am      G         C
I only bring the heat
Am       G     C

Filling space in your sheets, in
