Death Wish

[Intro]
NONE

[Chorus] – (For this first Chorus play single strums only)
Am C
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Dm F
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Am C G Fmaj7
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on

Am C
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Dm F
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
Am C G Fmaj7
I don’t wanna fight with you, baby, but I won’t leave you alone

[Verse]
Am C
The night was young once, we were the wild ones
Dm F
Before we had to pay attention to the violence
Am C Dm F
Anything could happen but nothing ever really did

Am C
I wanted action, she wanted answers
Dm F
Sunrise with the dealers and the dancers
Am C Dm F
It takes a whole lot of medicine to feel like a little kid

[Chorus]
Am C
Oh, and did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Dm F
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Am C G F
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on

Am C
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Dm F
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
Am C G F
I don’t wanna fight with you, baby, but I won’t leave you alone

[Verse]
Am C
Who’s gonna save you? Who’s left to pray to?
Dm Fmaj7
What’s the difference in a breakdown and a breakthrough?
Am C Dm Fmaj7
I saw her in the moonlight digging up the garden bed

Am C
I wanna hold her until it’s over
Dm Fmaj7
Let her sleep through the morning on my shoulder
Am C G Fmaj7
But there’s nothin’ I could say to her that I ain’t already said

[Chorus]
Am C
Did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Dm Fmaj7
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Am C G Fmaj7
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on

Am C
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Dm F
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
Am C G F F
I don’t wanna fight with you, baby, but I won’t leave you alone

[Break]
C F
When your words mean nothing

When the world turns to monochrome
C F
And you know she’s not bluffing
G Am C
‘Cause you feel it in your booo-ones

[Instrumental/Solo]
Dm F Am C Dm Fmaj7
Feel it in your boooooooones

[Chorus]
Am C
Oh, and did you ever love a woman with a death wish?
Dm Fmaj7
Something in her eyes like flipping off a light switch
Am C G Fmaj7
Everybody dies but you gotta find a reason to carry on

Am C
Oh, and did you ever catch her climbing on the rooftop?
Dm Fmaj7
Higher than a kite, dead of winter in a tank top
Am C G Fmaj7
I don’t wanna fight with you, baby, but I won’t leave you alone

Am C
I wanna hold her until it’s over
Dm Fmaj7
I wanna hold her until it’s over
Am C
Oh I wanna hold her until it’s over

Dm
I wanna hold her
Fmaj7
I wanna hold her
Am
I wanna hold her
C
Until it’s over

Dm Fmaj7
I wanna hold her until it’s over
Am C
Oh, I wanna hold her until it’s over

[Outro]
