Lyrics
I had a dream the oth er night
’bout how we on ly get one life.
Woke me up right af ter two, I stayed a wake and stared at (Dsus)you so I would n’t lose my (G5)mind.
And I had the (CN.C.)week that came from (G5)hell
and yes I know that you could (Em7)tell.
But you’re like the net un der the ledge when I go fly ing off the edge, you go fly ing off as (G5)well.
And if you (Em)on ly die once, (D)I want to die with...
(G)You got some thing I need.
In this (Em)world full of peo ple, there’s one kill ing me.
And if we (C)on ly die once,
I want to die with you.
(You, you, you.)
You got some thing I need.
In this (Em)world full of peo ple, there’s one kill ing me.
And if we (C)on ly die once,
I want to die with you.
(You, you.) Last night, I (CN.C.)think I drank too (G5)much,
yeah, call it our tem po rar y (Em7)crutch,
hey.
With bro ken words I’ve tried to say, hon ey, don’t you be a fraid, if we’ve got noth ing, we’ve got (G5)us,
yeah.
And if you (Em)on ly die once, I want to die with...
(You.)
I know that we’re not the same
but I’m so damn glad that we made it to this time,
this time
now.
Yeah.
You got some thing I need.
Yeah, in this (Em)world full of peo ple, there’s one kill ing me.
And if we (C)on ly die once,
I want to die with
you.
Hey!
You got some thing I need.
In this (Em)world full of peo ple, there’s one kill ing me.
And if we (C)on ly die once,
I want to die with you.
(You,
you.)
You got some thing I need.
In this (Em)world full of peo ple, there’s one kill ing me.
And if we (C)on ly die once,
I want to die with you.
(You,
you.)
you.)
If we (C)on ly die once,
I want to die...
If we (C)on ly live once,
I want to live
with you.
