A                                   D
I should ink my skin, with your name.
     A                                       D
And take my passport out again, and just replace it.
             A
See I could do without a tan on my left hand,
                                  D
where my fourth finger meets my knuckle.
              A
And I should run you a hot bath,
                       D
fill it up with bubbles.

Chorus:
       D                        E
Cause maybe your loveable, and maybe your my snowflake,
          A
and your eyes turn from green to grey,
                  D
in the winter I'll hold you in a cold place.
And you should never cut your hair,
         E                                   A     D
cause I love the way you flick it off your shoulder,
     D                             E                     A D
And you will never know, just how beautiful you are to me,
     D                               E        A
but maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up.

And would you ever feel guilty if you did the same to me
Could you make me a cup of tea
To open my eyes in the right way
And I know you love Shrek
'Cause we've watched it 12 times
And maybe you're hoping for a fairy-tale too
And if your DiViDi breaks today
You should've got a VCR
Because I've never owned a blu-ray, true say
I know I've always been shit at computer games
And your brother always beats me
And if I lost, I go across
and chuck all the controllers at the TV
And then you laugh at me
And be asking me
If I'm gonna be home next week
And then you lie with me 'til I fall asleep
And flutter eye lash on my cheek between the sheets

And you will never know
Just how beautiful you are to me
But maybe I'm just in love
When you wake me up

Chorus:
And I think you hate the smell of smoke
You always try and get me to stop
But you drink as much as me
And I get drunk a lot
So I’ll take you to the beach
And walk along the sand
And I'll make you a heart pendant
With a pebble held in my hand
And I'll carve it like this necklace
So the heart falls where your chest is
Now a piece of me is a piece of the beach
And it falls just where it needs to be
And rests peacefully
So you just need to breathe
to feel my heart against yours now
Against yours now

Cos maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up
Or maybe I'm just in love when you wake me up
Maybe I fell in love when you woke me up.
