Bridge
Quickly{Dm} moving towards a storm
Moving forward, torn
In to pieces over reasons
Of what these storms are for
{C}I don’t understand why everything I adore
Takes a different form when I squint my eyes
Have you {F}ever done that
When you squint your eyes
And your eyelashes make it look a little not right
And then when {Hb}just enough light
Comes from just the right side
And you find you’re not who you’re suppose to be?
{Dm}This is not what you’re suppose to see
Please, remember me? I am suppose to be
King o{C}f a kingdom or swinging on a swing
Something happened to my imagination
This situation’s {F}becoming dire
My treehouse is on fire
And for some reason I smell gas on my hands
{Hb}This is not what I had planned
This is not what I had planned.
Chorus
{Hb}Down in {F}the fo{Dm}rest{C}
{Hb}We’ll si{F}ng a ch{Dm}orus{C}
{Hb}Hands hel{F}d higher,{Dm} we’ll be{C} on fire
{Hb}Singing song{F}s that nobo{Dm}dy wrote.{C}
{Hb}Down in the{F} forest {Dm}we’ll sing {C}a chorus
{Hb}One that ever{F}ybody {Dm}knows{C}
{Hb}Hands held {F}higher, {Dm}we’ll be{C} on fire
{Hb}Singing songs{F} that nobody {Dm}wrote.{C}
{Hb}Hands hel{F}d hig{Dm}her{C}
{Hb}We’ll be {F}on f{Dm}ire{C}
{Hb}Hands hel{F}d hig{Dm}her{C}
{Hb}We’ll b{F}e on {Dm}fire{C}
