Lyrics

I Put your lips if close to (Asus)mine,

as (Em7)long as they don’t (G5)touch.

I Out of fo cus, eye to (Asus)eye,

till the (Em7)grav i ty’s too (G5)much.

And I’ll do an y thing you (Asus)say,

if you (Em7)say it with your hands.

And I’d be smart to walk a (Asus)way,

but you’re quick sand.

This slope is treach er ous,

this path is reck less.

This slope is treach er ous

and I, I, I, I like it.

I can’t de cide if it’s a (Asus)choice

as (Em7)get ting swept a (G5)way.

I hear the sound of my own (Asus)voice

till the (Em7)ask ing you to (G5)stay.

And all we are is skin and (Asus)bone,

if you (Em7)trained to get a long.

For ev er go ing with the (Asus)flow,

but you’re fric tion.

This slope is treach er ous,

this path is reck less.

This slope is treach er ous

and I, I, I, I like it.

like it.

Two head lights shine through the sleep less night and I will get you, get you a lone.

Your name has ech oed through my mind and I just think you should, think you should know that noth ing safe is worth the drive and I would fol low you, fol low you home.

I’ll (Bm)fol low you, fol low you home.

This hope is treach er ous,

this day dream is dan ger ous.

This hope is treach er ous.

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I...

I’ll fol low you, fol low you home.

I’ll (Bm)fol low you, fol low you home.

This slope is treach er ous.

I, I, I,

I like it.
