------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NIGHTINGALE (ACOUSTIC) - Saves The Day ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E G#m E G#m And I will flail under these lights that seep down from the bitter sky tonight E G#m and I will kick and beat my wrists together E G#m and feel an ocean breathing waves, feel them licking at my face. E G#m Ceilings don't exist and there are no floors beneath me. E G#m F# If I were king of this night, would you become my queen? E A# F# G#m F# E And I hope, your majesty that you like your position. E A# F# G#m F# E I'll do everything I can to keep you by my side E A# F# G#m F# E and I'll stare off through the darkness to find us a kingdom. A# F# Just kiss me before I go. E G#m E G#m I'll have to walk a thousand miles just to find the ground deserving of your feet. E G#m E You could throw me down and walk on me G#m F# E and I'd just look on through my love and through the haze. E A# F# G#m F# E And I hope, your majesty that you like your position. E A# F# G#m F# E I'll do everything I can to keep you by my side E A# F# G#m F# E and I'll stare off through the darkness to find us a kingdom. A# F# Just kiss me before I go. E G#m E The nightingales are singing now. G#m E A# E They're calling out our marriage to our subjects on their knees. A# E Their jewelery is thrown into the air. A# E They sigh at their release as their shackles hit the ground. A# The trumpets call out now. G#m A# We're home at last. E A# F# G#m F# E And I hope, your majesty that you like your position. E A# F# G#m F# E I'll do everything I can to keep you by my side E A# F# G#m F# E and I'll stare off through the darkness to find us a kingdom. A# F# Just kiss me before I go. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
