If My Heart Was A House


Capo 1, standard tuning. i just strum; it sounds pretty good (: Verse 1: D A Em G You're the sky that I fell through D A And I remember the view Em G Whenever I'm holding you D A Em G The sun hung from a string D A Em G Looking down on the world as it warms over everything D A Em G Chills run down my spine D A As our fingers entwine Em G And your sighs harmonize with mine D A Em G On this day complete D A Em G I can still feel your heart beat fast when you dance with me Pre-chorus: Bm A G A We got older and I should've known (Do you feel alive?) Bm A G A That I'd feel colder when I walk alone (Oh, but you'll survive) Bm A G A So I may as well ditch my dismay G D A Bombs away G D A bombs away Chorus: D A Em G Circle me and the needle moves gracefully D A Back and forth Em G If my heart was a compass you'd be north D A Em G Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall D A Wherever you go Em G D A Em G If my heart was a house you'd be home Verse 2: It makes me smile because you said it best I would clearly feel blessed if the sun rose up from the west Flower balm perfume, all my clothes smell like you Cause your favorite shade is navy blue I walk slowly when I'm on my own (Do you feel alive?) Yeah, but frankly I still alone (Oh, but you'll survive) So I may as well ditch my dismay Bombs away, bombs away
