Verse 1:
F#m
What if I rolled the dial to the right
D
And let that minor chord steer this night
F#m
What if I slid a match and lit the wick
D
What if I shut you up with my lips on your lips
F#m
Let the gravel in my voice
D
Drown out all the noise
Chorus:
D
With a whisper tonight
F#m
These thoughts that no one else should hear
E
Cut through my lips dance in your ear
D F#m
Till light comes burning through that window pane
E
Your hair's painting that pillow case
D
Answer me baby with nothing but your body
F#m E
Your hands got a crazy way of talking naughty
D
Let the other side of these walls
D E
The ups and downs of these halls (oh)
F#m
Hear what can start with a whisper

And what if that kitchen table gets wrecked

Takes the rest of the night off as it slides to the floor

With a whisper tonight
