[Intro]
C9 G C9 G x2
[Verse 1]
C9 G C9 G
Imagine you're a girl on ten mile stilts
C9 G C9 G
You travel round the world, taking it all in
EM9 C9
And you'll never touch the ground
EM9 C9
Is it a blessing or a curse
EM9 C9
And if you're too high to be found
Dsus2
Are you lost or just rehearsed
[Verse 2]
C9 G C9 G
Got a heart that opens clear in this cool September dark
C9 G
And it rests on treetop leaves
C9 G
And it bursts its little sparks
EM9 C9
And sometimes it sings its songs
EM9 C9
And it lets its secrets out
EM9 C9
Except for one that sears inside
Dsus2
That it cannot live without
[Chorus]
C9 G
But if I tell you will you take it
C9 G
Will you shine it up to me
C9 G
Can you be strong to let me go on
C9 G
And set this freedom free
C9 G
Set this freedom free
C9 G x2
Oh, oh
[Verse 3]
C9 G
The stars are out tonight
C9 G
Up here they're ripe to hold
C9 G C9 G
I have learned what comes to those who get too close
EM9 C9
I'm no Icarus in flight
EM9 C9
And I'm old enough to know
EM9 C9
That love is patient, but still unyielding
Dsus2
If you leave it long enough it lets you go
[Chorus]
C9 G
But if I tell you will you take it
C9 G
Will you shine it up to me
C9 G
Can you be strong to let me go on
C9 G
And set this freedom free
C9 G
Set this freedom free
C9 G
Oh, oh
[Outro]
C9 G
Set this freedom free
C9 G
Oh hey hey
C9 G
Ooh yeah
