Verse:
D	       DM7	     Em
I'm getting lost in your curls
G				    Bm	       A
I'm drawing pictures on your skin, so soft it twirls
D	       DM7		       Em
I like your looks when you get mean
  G		
I know I shouldn't say so but when you
Bm		    A
Claw me like a cat, I'm beaming
D	    DM7		       Em
I like the way you squeeze my hand

Pulling me into another dream,

A lucid dream.

I'm getting crushed out on the things
	    A
that only I should see

G			A
not for boys, they're just for me
    F#m		          G
Hurry to talk, from far away

When we're alone, I wanna say

Some kind of magic in the way you're lying there
 
Verse:
I'm getting lost in your curls
I'm getting rushed back on a whim,
Our breaths get wind
Back to the time when we were green
 
I know we have changed
But I still grin 'cause I can't wait to see you
Back to the time I touched your hair
When I was so scared to look that mean, I think it's weird
 
I'm getting lost in your curls
I'm getting crushed out on the things
that only I should see
 
Pre-Chorus:
They're not for boys, they're just for me
We're in the dark, from far away
It's so hard for me
Only to get the urge to kiss you there
When we're alone, I wanna say
Let's just stay in, no one's here in our apartment babe
 
Chorus:
Put on the dress that I like
It makes me so crazy, though I can't say why
Keep on your stockings for a while
Some kind of magic in the way you're lying there
 
Put on your dress that I like
It makes me so crazy, though I can't say why
Keep on your stockings for a while
Some kind of magic in the way you talk about your

Anything but your blue..

Yes. Thank you. Could probably throw the originally posted chords in for variation still. Shame they don't play this live more often.

so that F#m in the pre-chourus should be a DM7...same notes though for the most part, just the 2nd fret on the three high strings and the open D
