[Verse 1]
AmE E7 E
I'm drinking dust
AmE E7 E
With eyes of rust
Am E Am/C C#m
Tonight my tears might stain your wings
So flutter [F#7/Bb]home
A E/G# C/GA7E E7 E
'Cause you're better off alone than with me
[Verse 2]
Am E E7 E
So hide your face
Am E E7 E
And tie your lace
Am EAm/C C#m
And butterflies across your cheek
Forget how [F#7/Bb]soon
AE/G# A7
You'll become a fool for words when I speak

[Chorus]
Flutter [Em]girl[Em/D]
CGm/Bb
You don't want to know what I've lived
Cm/Ab G
You don't want to take what I give
'Cause I [Eb]give no[A7]thing for [Em]free[Em/D]
C Gm/Bb
You don't want to know what I've lived
Cm/Ab G
You don't want to take what I give
G#7 A7 G G#7 A7E
'Cause I give nothing for free

[Verse 3]
My [Am]hands are r[E]ough[E7][E]
Am E E7 E
And my fingers cold
Am E Am/C C#m
And your heart's so young and so naive
To ever [F#7/Bb]feel
AE/G# A7
For a moment I might dare to believe

[Chorus]
Flutter [Em]girl[Em/D]
You don't want to [C]know what I've lived[Gm/Bb]
You don't want to [Cm/Ab]take what I give[G]
'Cause I g[Eb]ive not[A7]hing for f[Em]ree[Em/D]
You don't want to [C]know what I've lived[Gm/Bb]
You don't want to [Cm/Ab]take what I give[G]
'Cause I [G#7]give no[A7]thing for [G]free[G#7][A7][Em]

As I run all your colors away
