This is the chords of New Recording 28 – Lions by Chelsea Cutler on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.
[Verse 1]
A
I haven\’t heard you say goodnight
Slip both your hands between my thighs
F#M
Turn out the light, pulling me in
D
Counting the freckles that dapple my skin
A
I haven\’t felt you scratch my back
I make a joke \’cause I know you will laugh
F#M
My favorite sound, I hope that you still
D
Laugh just as much now I\’m not there to hear
[Chorus]
A D
I\’ll lay awake hoping that you\’re asleep in your building that\’s only sixteen blocks from mine
A E
I\’ll sleep all day hoping that you\’re awake loving every moment and doing alright
F#M D
You said if I really love you then I\’d understand why a person like you needs some time
A E A
So I\’ll let you go, and hope you come home, if you\’re really mine
[Verse 2]
A
You were my sun, I saw a light
I\’ve always been happy but sad in this life
F#M
But you gave me more, something to keep
D
Now I\’m counting how many K\’s put me to sleep
A
I want you to smile, to feel like enough
\’Cause you deserve yellow and lions and love
F#M
I hope you come back when you\’re doing well
E
Forgive me for being the worst of myself
[Chorus]
F#M D
And I\’ll lay awake hoping that you\’re asleep in your building that\’s only sixteen blocks from mine
A E
I\’ll sleep all day hoping that you\’re awake loving every moment and doing alright
F#M D
You said if I really love you, I\’d understand why a person like you needs some time
A E D
So I\’ll let you go, and hope you come home, if you\’re really mine
[Verse 3]
A
I watch the sun go down at the beach
Think about kissing you back in your Jeep
F#M
Watching the wind make home in your hair
E
Thinking that I could die happy right there
A
I took my phone to tape as you walked
Down the rye coast with your hand in my palm
F#M
So I never forget how it feels to be home
D
When I close my eyes, that\’s where I go
[Chorus]
F#M D
And I\’ll lay awake hoping that you\’re asleep in your building that\’s only sixteen blocks from mine
A E
I\’ll sleep all day hoping that you\’re awake loving every moment and doing alright
F#M D
You said if I really love you then I\’d understand why a person like you needs some time
A E A
So I\’ll let you go, and hope you come home, if you\’re really mine
