You're my queen

Break them walls down
Em D7
Go floatin' across the floor
G A
And when you get to the end
Em D
You want to start at the beginning again
A G
I want to write a song that'll get you high
A Cadd9 A
I want to find the words that'll make everything feel alright now

So in another world and another time, in another lonely little moon

I'll be the kind of man that'll do you right, Right by you
G D
When you turn it on it's gonna blow your mind
