...voice is too breathy to decipher all the lyrics, but you wanted the chords anyway so
pi55 off...
 
 
 
[[For this section repeat Am   F   G   C ]]
 
 
Ooooh ooooh
 
 
Soft skin
 
You touch me within and
 
So I know I could be human once again
 
I know your faced with something
 
That could consume you completely
 
Soft skin
 
You touch me once again
 
And somehow it stings
 
'cause I know it is the end
 
I hear that you're leaving
 
so why don't you talk to me
 
You act like nothing ever happened
 
but it meant the world to me
 
 
 
 
 
[[For this section repeat Dm  Am  C  F]]
 
 
And you can't and you can't see the way through the trees
 
And you can't and you can't see the way that I pee's [['tF?]]
 
And you can't and you can't see the weight of my art
 
And you can't and you can't see the way to my heart
 
 
 
[[For this section repeat Am   F   G   C ]]
 
 
Soooofft soooft skiiiinnnnn....
 
[[Breathy Jibberish]]
 
blah blah blah "heart"...blah blah..."human"...blah...[[whisper]]...blah...
[[secret]]...blah...blah...
 
 
 
 
 
Soooofft soooft skiiiinnnnn....
 
 
You would never... [[whispery jibberish]]
 
So now I'm suffering  [[ ---the truth]]
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
[[...repeat some of the shizz at the beginning with Am   F   G   C]]
 
 
 
 
 
 
...again sorry about the lyrics, but it ain't my fault. Want to complain? Call Claire
and tell her to 1) kill the vocal reverb, 2) stop chewing gum and 3) speak   tf   up!
 
 
 
...in all seriousness, this is a really nice song. My incompetence displayed above is a
desperate cry for others to correct/revise lyrics in   comments  .

Dude that's hilarious. I lost it at Breathy Gibberish blah blah "heart" blah... If you ever write a book, let me know somehow and I'll buy one. Anyways I nabbed the lyrics (by 'heartisonfire' and 'Stockholm') from songmeanings.net Soft skin You touch me within and so I know I could be human once again I know you're faced with something That could consume you completely Soft skin You touch me once again and somehow it stings ‘Cos I know it is the end I hate that you're leaving So why don't you talk to me? You act like nothing ever happened But it meant the world to me And you can't and you can't see the wind in the trees And you can't and you can't see the wind in the leaves And you can't and you can't see the weight in the dark And you can't and you can't see the weight in the heart Soft skin I'll have you be near my heart, Until I feel human Soft skin You were never a lie to begin with So now I'm suffering
