[Verse]
         G
When the streetlights come on,
    G/E                      Am
the pooling light is leveed aside
                  Cadd9                 G/E
And pressed in twilight against our two rooms
               D/F#
I'll see you tonight
 
                G                   G/E
The pavement is aching, cicadas are crying
                 Am                                  Cadd9
The wine-colored air breathing thoughts through your hair
            G/E            D/F#
breezing to me, leading me there
 
[Chorus]
G/E     C/G         G       D/F#
I come alive as the shadows parade
G/E           C/G            G             D/F#
My hot summer blood comes in floods and in waves
G/E         Cadd9        G        D/F#                Cadd9
Curbside confessions, no longer afraid of what you'll say
 
 
[Verse]
      G                  G/E
And I find you, twilit beyond all the cars
                  Am                           Cadd9           G/E
In driveways they sleep, but streetlights will keep watch over me
                   D/F#
They flickers like stars
            G                 G/E                         Am
And now the secrets carefully kept inside run the streets red,
              Cadd9              G/E                 D/F#
Our chemicals spread, washing us through, making you mine
 
[Chorus]
G/E     C/G         G       D/F#
I come alive as the shadows parade
G/E           C/G            G             D/F#
My hot summer blood comes in floods and in waves
G/E         Cadd9        G        D/F#                Cadd9
Curbside confessions, no longer afraid of what you'll say

[Verse]
              G                  G/E
Now there are no words, only the glow in our wires
               Am                   Cadd9
And so we will be, you turn slow to me
                 Am
Our lips set the sun (I'll never leave you)
                 Cadd9
The hills are on fire  Oh
 
[Chorus]
G/E     C/G         G       D/F#
I come alive as the shadows parade.
G/E           C/G            G             D/F#
My hot summer blood comes in floods and in waves.
G/E         Cadd9        G        D/F#                Cadd9
Curbside confessions, no longer afraid of what you'll say.
