G             C          F           C
Tonight there isn't any light under your door
G            C           F            C
I guess you must be somewhere breathing
G              C                  F
Where skin and everything still know what
          C
they are for
G            C                F C
And blood remembers where to go

Chorus:
G          C                 F               C
I fell in love with you, no matter what you say
G             C               F     C
But you were right about the reasons
G          C           F               C
To turn a magdeline into the month of May
G                      C             F C
I should've known the magdeline was me

So I'm turning on the stereo
And I'm lining up the names
On the mixes I made before you
And I'm turning into fairytales
With glitter and some glue
Everything we ever planned
To ever do

Chorus:
Tonight there isn't any light under your door
I guess you must be somewhere breathing
In patterns unfamiliar to the one you're underneath
I pinned those patterns in my coat

So I'm turning on the stereo
And I'm turning into fairytales
Yes, I'm turning on the stereo
And I'm turning into you
I fell in love with you
