Intro

Intro Riff x2

Verse 1

Could you whisper in my ear
The things you wanna feel
I'll give you anything to feel it coming
Do you wake up on your own,
Wonder where you are
Live with all your faults?

Breakdown

(Breakdown Riff) Cadd9
I wanna wake up where you are
(Breakdown Riff) Cadd9
I won't say anything at all,
so why don't you slide?

Interlude

       
Yeah, we're gonna let it slide      

Verse 2

Don't you love the life you killed?
The priest is on the phone
Your father hit the wall
Your ma disowned you
I don't suppose I'll ever know
What it means to be a man
It's something I can't change
I'll live around it...

Breakdown

I wanna wake up where you are
(Breakdown Riff) Cadd9
I won't say anything at all
So why don't you slide?

Interlude

Uuhm, slide  

Refrain

And I'll do anything you ever dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothing that fall

Chorus

Oh May, put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are and what you are is beautiful
Oh May, you wanna get married, or run away?

Interlude

(uuuhh) (uuhh)  

Refrain

And I'll do anything you ever dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothing that fall

Chorus

Oh May, put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are and what you are is beautiful
Oh May, you wanna get married, or run away?

Breakdown

(Breakdown Riff) Cadd9
I wanna wake up where you are
(Breakdown Riff) Cadd9 N.C.
I won't say anything...

Refrain

And I'll do anything you ever dreamed to be complete
(Yes, I)
Little pieces of the nothing that fall
(Yes, I)
And I'll do anything you ever dreamed to be complete
(Yes, I)
Little pieces of the nothing that fall
(Yes, I)
Oh, oh, oh and I
(Yes, I)

Post-Refrain

Why don't you slide between them sheets of all those beds you never knew
Just slide up to my room, just slide up to my room
And I will run away, run away, run away...
