[Verse 1]
G
The sea is whipping the sky
G
The sky is whipping the sea
Em
You can hide away forever from the storm
G D
But you'll never hide away from me
G
The icy cold will cut us like a knife in the dark
Em D C
And we may lose everything in the wind
G
But the Northern Lights are burning
Em
And they're giving off sparks
Am D
I want to wrap myself around you like a winter skin
G
You know I'm onto your scent
G G
We're near the end of the chase
C
Take a look out your window and I'll be there in the night
G
Your love is so close that I can almost taste it
G
The cold will cut us like a knife in the dark
Em G C
And we may lose everything in the wind
G
But the Northern Lights are burning
Em C
And they're giving off sparks
Am D
I want to wrap myself around you like a winter skin
[Pre Chorus]
G
You've been living your life like a girl in a cage
G
And you whisper when I want you to shout
G
And I wonder why you wanna go on sleeping
D
When there's nothing left to dream about
D
But you better remember
G
If it's something I want then it's something I need
Em Am G C
I wasn't built for comfort I was built for speed
G
If it's something I want then it's something I need
G Em Am C
I wasn't built for comfort I was built for speed
G
[Chorus]
Am
And I know that I'm gonna be like this forever
Em D C
I'm never gonna be what I should
G D C
And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while
Am D Em C
But I know that I'll be bad for good (ooh oo)
D D G
I know that I'll be bad for good
Am Em D G
(I know that I'll be bad for good)

Your eyes are darker than sin

And I've been watching them glow

Take a chance on a promise and a roll of the dice

Put your foot on the gas, let it go, let it go, let it go
G Em D C Am D
[Pre Chorus]
G
You've been living your life like a girl in a cage

If it's something I want then it's something I need
