NIKI - Milk Teeth

Capo: 2nd fret

[Verse I]
G
Morning seeps through the blinds

And joins us in bed and
Em C
You stir in your sleep
Cm
There goes fear embedding

G
What if I make you pancakes

But you choose to skip breakfast?
Em C
And what if when you’re fully awake
Cm
You come to your senses

G

[Verse II]
G
Hours pass on the hood of your car

So little is said
Em C
I wait for your arms
Cm
And you give your jacket instead

G
Am I at your disposal?

You tell me I’m nice
Em C
But I know I’m only the hostel
Cm
‘till there’s a house that you like

G

[Chorus]
Em C
It hasn’t been long since
G
The first kiss goodnight
Em
Said I stole your heart
C G
You called me a thief
Em C
This love’s but a newborn
G
So why does it bite
Em
It hasn’t even lost
A Em
All its milk teeth
C
So why are you already
Cm G
Anxious to leave?

G

[Verse III]
G
I know soon enough we’ll come

Apart at the seams
Em C
But just one empty kiss
Cm
And it’s not as bad as it seems
G
We breathe for different reasons

Both as petty I’d reckon
Em C
You for your “well done”‘s
Cm
And me for your welcome

G

[Chorus]
Em C
It hasn’t been long since
G
The first kiss goodnight
Em
Said I stole your heart
C G
You called me a thief
Em C
This love’s but a newborn
G
So why does it bite
Em
It hasn’t even lost
A Em
All its milk teeth
C
So why are you already
Cm G
Anxious to leave?

Em G Em

C
So why are you already
Cm Cm G
Anxious to leave?
