and you won't give up the search for the ghosts in the halls
Bm G D A
you wear sandals in the snow and a smile that won't wash away

can you look out the window without your shadow getting in the way
E G
oh you're so beautiful with an edge and a charm
E G Asus A
but so careful when I'm in your arms

E G Asus A
you're setting up your razor wire shrine.
