King Charles - Ivory road

You're the ^Fnose on my bullet The trigger on my gun You're the ^Esandbank in the ocean Oxygen in my blood You're the ^Ffastest of the fish You're the prickliest pear You're a ^Fchameleon in the night You're the sahara's sun glare

^FYou're my mind's rest You're the strings on my guitar You're the ^Dmwax in my moustache The keys to my car You're the ^Gmagical mermaid's hollowed illusion You cool them, fool them And they hope so much And you ^Flet them down And you watch from your rock And your heart beats fast as you watch their's stop

^FI will keep on loving 'Cos I believe in love I ^Dmdon't mind dying If you follow me up Your ^Fvictory's your defeat Your head above your heart ^DmOnly the brave surrender ^GDeath cannot tear us apart

^FWell my smile is wider Than your's when we meet And the ^Ewinter is colder For me underneath And I ^Fknow that you glow From the inside out You can ^Fkeep it for yourself And I'll go without

^FYou are the fire and I'm the chimney You'll burn away and I'll choke on your memory All the ^Dmwords, my sense, you're the poet to my pen You're the dream that brings the morning sadness ^GStart the day storm in my ^Fhead ^FWell you're the Oscar Wilde short stories in my bookcase You're ^Dmpositively 4th street isolated in my itunes You're the ^Gword in the dictionary that I can't spell Can't describe, can't put in a ^Fsentence but use all the time ^FYour own pair of trousers look better on me The ^Dmboots of spanish leather And the bottom of the sea Every ^Gsymbol of love that doesn't relate to a meaning Every ^Ffeeling, every sensation Only real when I'm dreaming

^FI will keep on loving 'Cos I believe in love I ^Dmdon't mind dying If you follow me up ^FYour victory's your defeat Your head above your heart ^DmOnly the brave surrender ^GDeath cannot tear us apart ^F

^FWell I wish we were animals free of loves games I ^Dmwish we were snails with really big shells I ^Gwish I was a lion, I'd be king of the wild I'd ^Fcommand all the beasts to carry you when you're tired

^FI'm the elephant in the circus Oh, you're my trainer You'd ^Dmnever let me go But if you did I would stay here In ^Glove there is freedom But it must be returned There ^Fmust be sacrifice Love must be learnt A ^Fdonkey, a mule, a lifetime of work In ^Dmdeath he rests his head from his reins No burden to bare but work left him lame And the ^Glion on the mountain chased from his pride His lioness stolen, his rival survives G (let ring...) The sound of his cubs in death are dim He knows his world well, no pain can defeat him

^FWild horses in the ^Dmwilderness Will ^Gknow no journey ^Fhome Well my love is locked in ^Dmchains The ^Glion walks ^Falone Oh the lion ^Dmwalks alone ^GNature is cruel But he ^Fknows it's his home ^FHe to his demons And ^Dmyou to your own ^GPlease let me stand by you And we'll ^Fconquer them all ^FWe will ^Dmconquer them all Oh ^GI will ^Fconquer them all (x3)
