Am G I live a life of love Dm Am Hold me down, hold me down G Dm I live the life of letting go Under a starlight night I wrap myself in a thin sheet of ice Out there the stars are crystalized F Am C Em Ooooh, find me in the backyard F Am C Em Ooooh, find me in the backyard in the dark F Am C Em Ooooh, find me in the backyard F Am C Em Ooooh, find me in the backyard Chorus: Am G Cause you colour me clear Dm Now what are you, what are you waiting for?
