Verse 1
Em G
I see you there, don't know where you come from
C Am
Unaware but still from someone
Em G C Am
Don't appear to care that I saw you and I want you
Em G
What's your name? Cause I have to know it
C Am
You let me in and begin to show it
Em G C
We're terrified cause we're headed straight for it
Am
Might get it
Em G
Hear the song playin on the background
C Am
All alone but you're turnin up now
Em G C Am
And everyone is risin to meet ya, to greet you
Em G
Turn around and you're walking toward me

I'm breakin' down and you're breathing slowly
Em G C Am
Say the word and I will be your man, your man

Verse 2
Em G
Come close and then even closer
C Am
We bring it in but we go no further
Em G C Am
We're separate two ghosts in one mirror, no nearer
Em G
Later on if it turns to chaos
C Am
Hurricane comin all around us
Em G C
See the crack, pull it back from the window
Am
You stay low
