The Classic Crime - Who Needs Air

To dance upon the ashes of my burned up little plans.
Prechorus

And I stand alone before the night.

Am F

Chorus
C F

Am
Because when you got what I got, what I got, what I got
F

C

C
My addiction to danger like the rush of the sea,
F
Like a wave on the rocks the lessons crash down on me.
C

F
So step back and look away as I dive into the swell.
