Trade Mistakes

Intro: G  A  D  Bm 

           G                        A 
Placing a smile at the perfect event, 
              D                           Bm 
Gracing your skin with the side of my hand, 
             G                                A 
If I ever leave, I could learn to miss you, 
                D                     Bm 
But sentimental boy as my nom de plume. 

G              A  D            Bm 
Let me save you, hold this rope. 

 
G      A       D       Bm 
I may never sleep tonight, 
G             A            D            Bm 
As long as you're still burning bright, 
G                 A 
If I could trade mistakes for sheep, 
D                Bm 
Count me away before you sleep, 
G                         A 
I'll still wait 'til I trade my mistakes 
D                 Bm 
So they fade away.

             G             A 
I feel marooned in this body, 
           D                              Bm 
Deserted my organs, could go on without me, 
           G                A 
You can't fly these wings, 
          D                        Bm 
You can't sleep in this box with me,

Let me save you, hold this rope.

So let me save you, hold this rope, 
And I'll pull you in, 
       G        A     D 
'Cause I am an anchor, save her, 
Bm 
Oh, I feel it sinking in, 
G            A   D            Bm 
Let me save you, hold this rope,

I am an anchor sinking her.
