Introduction Lyrics

by Voxtrot
from Voxtrot LP
Capo II, All Notes Relative to Capo
This song consists of only two chords E (F#) and A (B).
In the verses, E an A refer to the intro riff.
In the bridge (Step into the sleep...) and onward, he strums the chords fully:
Intro:
E A repeat
Open your eyes and stretch your hands
This house is clean but it is not my home
Did I make this bed
The two hands touch on two
Sometimes I think of some place colder
The sound of traffic and the way it's worn
When you feel yourself grow up inside of here
And you love me just like a stranger
A (stop)
But you love me just like I am
E A (repeated)
Remember we ran through lovely streets
We made our rules and then we broke them first
It felt like we were running all the time
When I wouldn't give one ugly moment
I'd wrap it up, I'd keep it in my sock
I can keep it, yeah, I know what's yours is mine
And you love me just like a stranger
A (stop)
But you love me when
I stand to the sleep that lets me love some other day
We get bored of weakness all the time
Now I won't know how much I lost until I've gone away
Your sun sets when my sun starts to shine
