Don't You Need

Em7
I had a dream
C9
late last night
Em7
The water was running low
C9
and my
Em7
fields were on fire
C9
burning my sky.
Em7
My body was moving slow
C9
B7
and when I awoke I tasted the sweat
of de
A7
sire on my mouth.
Em7
And I
realized my hear
C9
t had abducted my mi
Em7
nd
and they were last seen headed
C9
south.
Now I
B7
can't sleep, I'm so wired,
and I fin
A7
d myself screaming out

Don't you
Em7
need? Don't you
D
want?
Can't you
C9
taste it when you're alone?
Don't you
Em7
cry? Don't you
D
feel?
Sometimes I
C9
wonder if you are real.
Don't you bleed?
B7
Don't you need?

There's no

quenching of thirst
C9
there's no relie

f for the hungry at he

art
Em7
And as far as you're concerned

I'm just a thief

entertaining in the dark.

t it's you that holds the cards
Now
A7
that the joker is wild.

Don't you

Can't you
C9
taste it when you're alone?
Don't you

Sometimes I
C9
wonder if you are real.
Don't you bleed
B7

Don't you need?
C9
D
Don't you want to lay it down
C9
and feel your skin against the ground?
D
Don't you want to ride the
C9
storm
and then sleep inside the calm?

Don't you want to get that high?

Don't you wanna be satis

Don't you
