[Intro]
G
 
 
[Verse]
G                                    C
  I should ink my skin with your name
    G                                     C
And take my passport out again and just replace it
            G
See I could do without a tan on my left hand
                                C
where my fourth finger meets my knuckle
             G
And I should run you a hot bath
                             C
And fill it up with bubbles
 
 
[Chorus]
       C
'Cause maybe you're loveable
    D
And maybe you're my snowflake
         G
And your eyes turn from green to gray
                  C
In the winter I'll hold you in a cold place
    C
And you should never cut your hair
         D                                  G         C
'Cause I love the way you flick it off your shoulder, mmm
 
 
[Hook]
    C
And you will never know
         D                      G   C
Just how beautiful you are to me
    C                               D         G
But maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up
 
 
[Verse]
G
  And would you ever feel guilty if you did the same to me
C                               D
  Could you make me a cup of tea to open my eyes in the right way
G
  And I know you love Shrek 'cause we've watched it 12 times
C                               D
  But maybe you're hoping for a fairy tale too
            G
And if your DVD breaks today, you should've got a VCR
C                                    D
  Because I've never owned a blu-ray, true say
            G
I know I've always been shit at computer games and your brother always beats me
         C                                        D
And if I lost, I'd go across and chuck all the controllers at the TV
                      G
And then you laugh at me
 
And be asking me if I'm gonna be home next week
                        C
And then you lie with me 'til I fall asleep
            D
And flutter eye lash on my cheek between the sheets
 
 
[Hook]
C
  And you will never know
         D                        G   C
Just how beautiful you are to me
    C                               D           G
But maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up
 
 
[Verse]
G
  And I think you hate the smell of smoke
                                 C
You always try and get me to stop
                           D
But you drink as much as me and I get drunk a lot
G                              G                    C
  So I’ll take you to the beach and walk along the sand
                                  D
And I'll make you a heart pendant, with a pebble held in my hand
G
  And I'll carve it like a necklace, so the heart falls where your chest is
C
  And now a piece of me is a piece of the beach
D
  And it falls just where it needs to be
         G
And rests peacefully
                           G                           C
So you just need to breathe to feel my heart against yours now, 
          D
against yours now
 
 
[Chorus]
      C                               D          Em    G
Cause maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up
   C                               D          Em    G
Or maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up
C                             D           G
Maybe I fell in love when you woke me up

mozz pie
This isnt a go at the writer of this tab but why do people repeatedly tab the first half of the song then leave the second for you to figure out from the first half? it's not that i can't its just a massive annoyance, many thanks Mozzy P :) x
