[E]
[Em]
[E] [Em] She's black and red and veiled just like a spy plane
[E] Extracting information from my mind
[D] That photograph she takes, you'd think me a friend
[Em] Roll your eyes, only you'll recall the whole time
[D] Now after all the city falls, just like the night [G] already
Through the sleepy paranormal picture like [C] my veins
She speaks, music in her tail as she breathes
[G] And like a tag in your love [C] dream, the light in your eyes [D] blinding me
When I approach you softly smile, my blind love [E] softly smiled
She's [Em] [C]
[E] [Em] built a city and we will keep it a secret
[E] Starry and dark against enemy skies
[D] A mile above me I don't want you to detect her
[Em] My black look grows kisser than Smith Pine
[D] And all this time there is no sign of treason that she [G] hasn't seen
Through the sleepy paranormal picture like [C] my veins
She speaks, music in her tail as [Em] she breathes
And like a tag in your [C] love dream, the light in your eyes [D] blinding me
When I approach you softly smile, my blind love softly [Em] smiled
[C]
[E] [Em] Awesome [E] woman, I have never loved one so easily
Only one, only [A] smile, [Em]
[G] she's the only one I [D] love
Now after all the city falls, just like the night already
Through [G] the sleepy paranormal picture like my [C] veins
She speaks, music in her tail as she [D] breathes
And like a tag in your [C] love dream, the light in your eyes [D] blinding me
When I approach you softly smile, my blind love [Em] softly smiled
