[Verse 1]
C F
We never sleep at night
C G
But we'll spend the days in bed
C F
And you walk down the stairs ever so gingerly
C G C
Could've lived but I chose to love you instead
[Chorus]
C F
Fix me your poison, gin for your molly
C G
Lime for your bruises and chalk for your holly
C
Tell me you're sleeping
D7
I can't if you won't
C G C
Yeah you could be my own
[Verse 2]
C F
The way that you smile when something pleasant is up in your mind
C G
And you put your tiny lips to my ear
C F
We could break this old routine, this apartment you and me
C G C
We could leave this town my dear
[Chorus]
C F
Rats in your armchair, burrs in your cotton
C G
Baby turn my engines from polished to rotten
C D7
Promise you'll keep me in a box by the phone
C G C
Yeah you could be my own
[Verse 3]
C F
Would you burn all the crows in my fields?
C F
And sing me to sleep
C G
You won't ever have to walk, cause my cars just down the block
C G C
And Japan's only two weeks away if you travel by sea
[Chorus]
C F
Love where you moving? Heart where you going?
C G
Your clothes on the floor, yeah your bruises are showing
C D7
Airplanes can take you to Paris or Rome
C G C
But you'll still be my own
C F
Bells in the boathouse, champagne and icing
C G
It's just like the movies, yeah your parents are crying
C D7
Our family's all gathered but we're getting stoned
C G C
Yeah you could be my own
C D7
I left all her pictures in a box by the road
C G C
So you could be my own
