Passion Pit


Tom: A

    G        D           C                  G D
And you said it was like fire around the brim
        C                              G  D
Burning solid burning thin the burning rim
           C                               G  D
Like stars burning holes right through the dark
         C                        G
Flicking fire like saltwater into my eyes
D            C                          G      D
You were one inch from the edge of this bed
              C            G  D  C           G     D C
I dragged you back a sleepyhead          sleepyhead

  D           C                                     G    D
They couldn't think of something to say the day you burst
               C                                       G    D
With all their lions and all their might and all their thirst
                C                                  G   D
They crowd your bedroom like some thoughts wearing thin
            C                                G        D
Against the walls against your rules against your skin
         C                                          G   D
My beard grew down to the floor and out through the doors
        C                                G  D  C        G   D C
Of your eyes, begonia skies like a sleepyhead      sleepyhead
