Travis - Idlewild

^EmIt was upon row of houses, ti^Cght skirts and baggy trousers ^BmGrey men and cheap disguises, high hopes and higher rises ^EmThere lived a girl who was on a mission ^CThere lived a boy who was under suspicion ^BmTried hard to stay beside her ^BmUntil the devil put his seed inside her ^EmHow? You know how... ^CSleep too long and the sand runs out ^BmSo close to midnight ^EmTime to fly, ^Cdo or die, s^Bmtung in the headlights

^EmHere we lie, h^Cigh and dry ^BmThe world will never see you till you open your eyes ^EmSay goodnight, k^Cill the light ^BmThe world will never hear you tonight, Idlew^Emild

^EmFor two years he tried to reach her ^CWorshiped the ground beneath her ^BmShe, she was always running... He, he saw the end was coming ^EmBut now the story takes a turning ^CShe wakes up and her sheets are burning ^BmHead down against the fire... Now, now, now the table t^Emurns ^EmShe won't learn, s^Cleep too long and your bed starts burning ^BmSo close to midnight ^EmIdlewild y^Cou don't know if y^Bmou never need to

^EmHere we lie, h^Cigh and dry ^BmThe world will never see you till you open your eyes ^EmSay goodnight, k^Cill the light ^BmThe world will never hear you tonight, Idlew^Emild... ^CIdlew^Bmild

^EmI thought that we were good together ^CI thought that we could weather the weather ^BmWhether or not the whys, the wherefores ^BmHigh hopes are only there because, because ^EmBecause I thought the only thing between us ^CWas something shallow, not a river so deep we see it ^BmDredge up the wreckage our parents left us ^BmAnd lay it on the banks to rot and fester ^EmAnd smell it like a death star ^CIn Gretna Green, Derby, Manchester ^BmI don't want to hear it now

^EmHere we lie, H^Cigh and dry ^BmThe world will never see you till you open your eyes ^EmSay goodnight, k^Cill the light ^BmThe world will never hear you tonight, Idlew^Emild..^C. Idlewi^Bmld ^EmKill the light, I^Cdlewild..^Bm. ^Em
