[Verse]
         Am
Takin' a break, takin'
 a breather
           C
cuttin' it off makin' it even
           G
Take me to space, take me to venus
              F
Feel like I'm hot,
 feel like a fever
         Am
Too many ghosts, too many demons
           C
Told me to go, take it or leave it
            G
Tell me the rope broke
               F
Closed doors opened ever
 so slightly

[Chorus]
        Am
And you said you need a light,
well here's some matches
    C
And you got no idea
about your dancin'
    G
How could it make a
man go mad with it
        F
Hand in hand with it,
 no use in askin'
           Am
And you're way too cute,
 no cap, no lights
C
 Room all black
         G
And your eyes keep on
                 F
 embarressing me
