G
Wide eyed
                   A       Bm
With a heart made full of fright
                        A            D
Your eyes follow like traces in the night
         G
And the tight rope
                A      Bm
That you wonder every time
                           A                  D
You have been weighed you have been found wanting

Chorus:
F#m   G             D
Been wondering for days,
how you felt me slip your mind
F#m      G                 D
Leave behind your wanting ways,
I wanna learn to love in kind
F#m          G     A     Bm     D
Cause you're all I ever longed for

Shelter, you better keep the wolf back from the door
He wanders ever closer every night
And how he waits, baying for blood
I promised you everything would be fine

Chorus

D        Em   Bm
Hold my gaze love, you know I want to let it go
D        Em    Bm
We will stare down, at the wonder of it all
    D Em Bm
And I-i-i-i will hold you in it
    D Em Bm
And I-i-i-i will hold you in it

Chorus:
Been wandering for days
How you felt me slip your mind
Leave behind your wanton ways
I want to look you in the eye
'Cause you were all I ever longed for

Been wandering for days
How you felt me slip your mind
Leave behind your wanton ways
I want to learn to love in kind
'Cause you were all I ever longed for
