White lies – Come Down

I felt love last night for the first time in a long time
It feels like coming home to stay

Like falling in the sea, when its too hot in the sun
But made things so much worse today

I know you said you’ll miss me

But I know that you won’t
Because time is like a wave, that washes all the pain away

When you come down..

I know I said I’ll see you

When it gets to new year

But now that all the rain’s stopped falling

All I think is getting out of here

I felt love last night for the first time in a long time

It feels like I never went away

Like drifting back to sleep when I’m aching and I’m tired
But made me feel so much worse today

I know you said you’ll miss me

But I know that you won’t

Cos time is like a wave, that washes all the pain away

When you come down..

I know I said I’ll see you

When it gets to new year

But now that all the rain stopped falling

All I think is getting out of here

I know I’d be welcome but tell me how far

Ceremonial knocks sound the gaps in my heart-beat

And I’ll never been good enough for you or for me

I’ve buried my pride, I’ve buried my key

I know I’d be welcome but tell me how far

Ceremonial knocks sound the gaps in my heart-beat

And I’ll never been good enough for you or for me

I’ve buried my pride, I’ve buried my key

I know you said you’ll miss me
But I know that you won’t

Because time is like a wave, that washes all the pain away

When you come down..

I know I said I’ll see you

When it gets to new year

But now that all the rain’s stopped falling

All I think is getting out of here

I was waiting in the back-seat of the car
When I knew I’d given up
Down on the back-streets by the park
So sick of the taste of blood
I’m gonna write your girl a letter
It’ll make everything better

Screaming down the phone-line to your mum
She said Honey ain’t home right now
I bought a tuxedo and I bought a gun
And wore them all around this town
Nobody dares to lift a finger
They can see my heart is down and injured

If I’m guilty of anything
It’s loving you too much
Honey, sometimes love
Means getting a little rough
This is not bad love
This is not bad love

INSTRUMENTAL




I’ve been going to church
But I don’t believe
I’ll ever be clear this pain
Walk like a ghost through the streets
Soaked from the pouring rain
And I won’t ask your God for mercy
My spirits are low, my soul is dirty

If I’m guilty of anything
It’s loving you too much
Honey, sometimes love
Means getting a little rough
This is not bad love
This is not bad love

INSTRUMENTAL


If I’m guilty of anything
It’s loving you too much
Honey, sometimes love
Means getting a little rough
This is not bad love
This is not bad love

If I’m guilty of anything
It’s loving you too much
Honey, sometimes love
Means getting a little rough
This is not bad love
This is not bad love

Chords by cramba

intro: B5

verse 1:
You took the tunnel route home, you’ve never taken that way with me before.
Did you feel the need for change?
Apologies on your fingernails, love flickered in the city of lights,
Like good singers on radio waves

pre-chorus:
I don’t need your tears
I don’t want your love
I just gotta get home.

chorus:
And I feel like I’m breaking up, and I wanted to stay,
Headlights on the hillside, don’t take me this way,
I don’t want you to hold me, I don’t want you to pray,
This is bigger than us

break: B5, A5, G5, A5, B5
B5, A5, G5, A5

verse 2:
You went where the horses cry, you’ve never taken that way with me before.
Did you feel the need for change?
Guilt smeared across your lips, I was tired and cold from the window
You’re cold, nothing has changed.

pre-chorus:
I don’t need your tears
I don’t want your love
I just gotta get home.

chorus:

And I feel like I’m breaking up, and I wanted to stay,
Headlights on the hillside, don’t take me this way,
I don’t want you to hold me, I don’t want you to pray,
This is bigger than us

chorus:
And I feel like I’m breaking up, and I wanted to stay,
Headlights on the hillside, don’t take me this way,

This is bigger than us X3
