A E/G
I remember thinking
F# E*
I'll go on forever only knowing I'll see you again.
A
But I know
E/G
the touch of you is hard to remember.
F# E*
But like that touch I know no other.
A
And for sure
E/G
we have danced in the risk of each other.
F# E*
Would you like to dance around the world with me?
A E/G
I'll be
F# E*
falling all about my own thing.
A
And I know
E/G
you're the heaviest weight.
F#
When you're not here
E*
that's hung around my head.
A
And your lips burn wild
F G
thrown from the face of a child
E
and in your eyes a scene of the greatest view hey.
A
Do what you will always
F G
walk where ya like your steps
Do as you please.
E
I'll Back You Up.
A E/G
I remember thinking
F# E*
Sometimes we walk, sometimes we run away.
A
But I know
E/G
no matter how fast we are running.
F# E*
Somehow we keep, somehow we keep up with each other.
