We Come Alive

            F               
There were roman candles and 
  Bb               C
Catherine wheels outside
F                 Bb     C
Inside, all was deadly quiet
 F           Bb       C       F 
Corner cut, medium weight and I 
            C   Bb
arrive late
 F                              
I caught you spelling baby names 
      Bb                 C
with sparklers on your patio
     F   Bb      C        F     
And you didn’t know, that I’d 
                       Bb    C
been writing letters to other girls
    F                Bb     C
In shaky, shaky handwriting



Bridge 1:

    Dm
We swooned like 50’s housewives
                Bb
Buzzing like a hive
 Dm                             Bb
  The room is spinning faster than
    C
 a 45

Verse 2:

     F                       Bb   
Well you were an octopus and I was
      C
 an orang-utan
     F                         Bb 
And everybody in there saw the way
          C
 that we carried on
      F                            
But everyone who knows me, knows I 
 Bb     C                 F  Bb C
make up all these stories


Bridge 2:

    Dm
We swooned like 50’s housewives
                Bb
Buzzing like a hive
 Dm                             Bb
  The room is spinning faster than
    C
 a 45

We come alive
