Rooftops and Invitations Lyrics
by Dashboard Confessional
From the album Dusk and Summer.
By request, Rooftops and Invitations,
as you know I don't have a musical ear,
so if there are chord changes missing please forgive me.
It seems too simple to me,
the KISS principle says to "keep it simple, stupid" so here it goes...
listen to the song to get the timings down.
Key of D#
CHORDS EADGBE (Half step down)
A# 799877
A#7Madd11 X68800
Gm (barred) 466444
Gmadd11 446600
INTRO:
VERSE 1:
the first time you looked at her curves you were hooked
A#add11 D#5 Gm(barred) G#add9 A#add11
and the glances you took, took hold of you and demanded that you stay
and sunk in their teeth, bit your heart and released
A#add11 D#5 G#add9 Gm(barred) G#add9
such a charge that you need another touch, another taste, another fix
CHORUS:
she just might get you lost
and she just might leave you torn
but she just might save your soul
if she gets you when she gets you any closer
VERSE 2:
she leads you up, points out skylines and stars, steeple chases in bars
D#5 Gm(barred) G#add9 A#add9
and took your keys and demanded that you stay
the city longs well for rooftops and invitations
A#add11 G#add9 Gm(barred) G#add9
all lace in secret places, she moves you to touch with her hands
CHORUS:
she just might get you lost
and she just might leave you torn
but she just might save your soul
if she gets you when she gets you any closer
BRIDGE:
under the cold sheet, where the welcomed touch of skin and skin will meet
out on the inside where a girls prize is at the tip of your tongue
where every move and each impulse brings clarity
to stay like this is everything you'll ever need
CHORUS:
she just might get you lost
and she just might leave you torn
but she just might save your soul
if she gets you when she gets you any closer
she just might get you lost
and she just might leave you torn
but she just might save your soul
if she gets you when she gets you any closer
OUTRO:
can you believe your eyes?...
