Em  Dm       F     G
We jumped straight into
    C            Am
The iris of the lake
       D       G      C        F          G
You threw your arms around my neck, you knew
    C         F
My heart was yours
    C         F
My heart was yours

Stay up late into
The iris of the day
You said just one more cigarette, you knew
My heart was yours
My heart was yours

Man you change, you grew
You grew another face
You chewed my flesh and spit the taste, you knew
My heart was yours
My heart was yours
