                That's all    I    need

  Don't build your world around
G           Fmaj7
  Volcanoes melt you down


(continue pattern over)


           Am
And what I am to you
       Fmaj7
Is not real
           Am
And what I am to you
           Fmaj7
You do not need
           Am
And what I am to you
                Fmaj7
Is not what you mean to me
            Am
You give me miles and miles of mountains
    Fmaj7         Am (to intro)
And I ask for the sea

 
Don't throw yourself like that
In front of me
I kissed your mouth your back
Is that all you need
Don't drag my love around
Volcanoes melt me down

And what I am to you
Is not real
And what I am to you
You do not need
And what I am to you
Is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I ask...


       C
What I give to you
                 E
Is just what I'm going through
        Am
This is nothing new
              Fmaj7
No, no, just another phase of finding 
       C
What I really need
        E
Is what makes me bleed
       Am
Like a new disease
               Fmaj7
But lord she's still too young to treat


       Am
What I am to you                   is not real
