E         F#m D   Bm 
Under the sun sleeping 
E         F#m    D  Bm 
So we'd rehearse evenings 
E               F#m  D   Bm 
It was in every word somehow 
E              F#m  D   Bm 
And I was in return so allowed 
 
E         F#m D   Bm 
 
E         F#m   D   Bm 
How we began to see things 
E         F#m    D     Bm 
Seems in reverse sweetening 
E               F#m  D   Bm 
It was in every word somehow 
E             F#m   D   Bm 
And I was in return so allowed 
 
E         F#m D   Bm 
 
E         F#m        D   Bm 
I want to say you're mine 
E         F#m           D   Bm 
Oh I want to say you're mine 
E         F#m        D   Bm 
I want to say you're mine 
E         F#m           D   Bm 
Oh I want to say you're mine
