Strawberry Road

F#m E F#m B


[Verse 1]
A
Shotgun alleys with lightning flowers
D                  F#m
Under the eyes of fallen statues
    B                     D
Dry blood they've never seen
A
Pain is sharper when I suspect
      D             F#m
That true love runs looking for us
        B           D
Like a lion in our dreams


[Chorus]
A               E
The strawberry road
           Bm            E
Where the dream fades
    A                E               Bm       D
Is down between our longing and desire
  A            E
The strawberry road
           Bm          E        F#m E F#m B
Where our hearts break into love


[Verse 2]
     A
You censor longing and organize beauty
   D
Because you're afraid
F#m                 B          D
You want it more than oxygen or light
A
You can't get there with your morals
      D
Or without love
F#m
Lie down with me
    B                    D
The rules aren't always right


[Chorus]
A               E
The strawberry road
           Bm            E
Where the dream fades
    A                E               Bm       D
Is down between our longing and desire
  A            E
The strawberry road
           Bm          E        F#m E F#m B
Where our hearts break into love


[Verse 3]
A
Call it romance or nostalgia
    D                 F#m
The hunger behind our memories
      B             D
We've buried it in code
    A
The things we've wanted
                      D
When we get them are never enough
F#m
Never what they seem
         B               D
But they lead us to the road


[Chorus]
A               E
The strawberry road
           Bm            E
Where the dream fades
A                   E          Bm   D
Is down between our longing and desire
  A            E
The strawberry road
           Bm          E        F#m E F#m E F#m E F#m E F#m E F#m E F#m E
Where our hearts break into love
