[riff] (x2)
Am G F
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
Am G F
 
[Verse 1]
         Am
You got eyes so azure
          G          F
You got blood orange skin
                Am                          G         F
And there's a spark in your center that's piercing me in
{riff comes in}
         Am                       G     F
I got a night-time shudder and a lion within
         Am                              G         F
I got a brain-triCked hunger and you're pulling me in
 
[Chorus]
                  F
High above the smokestacks
             Am                G
Throwin' my soul, throwin' my soul
          F
Quiet in jet black
               Am          G
Hoping I will carry you could carry you
             F
Above the smokestacks
             Am               G
Throwin' my soul, throwin' my soul
            F
Takin' our minds back
                Am              G
Hopin' I will carry you could carry you
           Am E7 C Dm
Carry you home
                      Am E7 C Dm
Carry you, Carry you home
                      Am E7 C Dm
Carry you, Carry you home
 
(riff starts again)
Am    G   F
Oooh home home
Am    G   F
Oooh home home
 
[Verse 2]
{riff stops, snapping begins}
            Am                   G          F
You got a downtown fire, like a shot in the dark
           Am                      G             F
You got a mad beamin' on you and a hot wide-eyed spark
         Am                     G     F
I got a body of wonder and an emerald mind oh
            Am                  G         F
I'm on a luminous heavy to put gold in my eyes
 
[Chorus]
                  F
High above the smokestacks
             Am                G
Throwin' my soul, throwin' my soul
          F
Quiet in jet blaCk
               Am          G
Hoping I will Carry you (Carry you)
             F
Gove the smokestaCks
             Am               G
Throwin' my soul, throwin' my soul
            F
Takin' our minds baCk
                Am          G
Hopin' I will Carry you (Carry you)
           Am E7 C Dm
Carry you home        
                      Am E7 C Dm
Carry you, Carry you home
                      Am E7 C Dm
Carry you, Carry you home
                      Am E7 C Dm
Carry you, Carry you home
                      Am
Carry you, Carry you home {riff starts on home}
Am    G   F
Oooh home home
Am    G   F
Oooh home home
 
[Verse 1]
         Am
You got eyes so azure
          G          F
You got blood orange skin
                Am                          G        F
And there's a spark in your Centre that's pierCing me in
         Am                       G    F
I got a night-time shudder and a lion within
         Am                               G       F
I got a brain-triCked hunger and you're pulling me in
