Needles & Pins

A
I woke up before the sun rose

Did my best to walk on tip toes
C#m
Needles and pins

Bm
Cus if you heard the way I pace

Around this room your mind would 
race for the
  D
Reasons and sins

A
I never learned to wear a tie and go
 to work and
                    C#m
Tell you lies like everything's ok
        Bm
Though sometimes it is for a little 
while

And I can live in between those 
smiles
     D
And patiently wait

Bm
When it feels like home where you 
can't be found
          D                     
Cus she haunts the alone and you 
               A  E
need her now
Bm
Revered like gold in your plastic 
crown
            D                      
When your kingdom falls and you lay
         A  E
 it down
Continues after the ad
            Bm               D    
Before the next breathe you need 
      E
the grace
            A
To breathe out

A
I've been talking faster I've been

Looking for distraction trying to
 C#m
Loosen up some days
Bm
Ain't it funny how we can't remember

Most our lives while a few words 
never
    D
Mercifully fade
A
So I beg you honey take some 
pictures

Frame them hang them high and let's
     C#m
Set fire to the room
Bm
Cus I think I like the lighting 
better

When it's wrapped up in burning time
 like
                   D
Sweaters for your cold winter blue

Bm
When it feels like home where you 
can't be found
          D                     
Cus she haunts the alone and you 
               A  E
need her now
Bm
Revered like gold in your plastic 
crown
            D                      
When your kingdom falls and you lay
         A  E
 it down
            Bm               D    
Before the next breathe you need 
      E
the grace
            A
To breathe out

C#m         D                   
Oh have I lost some keys in the 
A          E
dust as I cleaned up
C#m           D             Bm  
Oh don't it always seem to come 
            E
as you let go

Bm
When it feels like home where you 
can't be found
          D                     
Cus she haunts the alone and you 
               A  E
need her now
Bm
Revered like gold in your plastic 
crown
            D                      
When your kingdom falls and you lay
         A  E
