Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][F#m]

[Verse 1]
[G]Yellow light bulb,
incandescent
Cotton nightgown, soft and fra[F#m]grant
[D]Don't put [Bm]me d[D]own
[G]In the bathtub after dinner
Swaddle me for twenty minutes
[D]Don't put me down

[Verse 2]
[Em]
You turn the [A]light[Em]s out
I'm [A]all [Em]alone now
My [F#m]thumb in [A]my [Em]mouth

[Verse 3]
[Em]Oh, [F#m]I need[Gm] your love
Take me in your arms, an [C]eternal embrace
I won't [F]be unkind, oh, I swear this time
I won't [Dm]push you away
Is it [Gm]all dried up? Unconditional love?
Can I [C]taste it again?
I [D]need [G]milk

[Verse 4]
Underneath the kitchen [F#m]table
[G]Pick me up and make a [F#m]cradle
[D]Don't put me down
[G]You don't like the way I'm growin'
Lock the doors that used to open
[D]Don't put me down
[A]

[Verse 5]
[Em]
I threw my key out
I'm all alone now
Can [A]I sleep at your [Em]house?

[Verse 6]
[Em]Oh, [F#m]I need[Gm] your love
Take me in your arms, an [C]eternal embrace
I won't [F]be unkind,
oh, I swear this time
[Dm]I won't push you away
Is it [Gm]all dried up? Unconditional love?
Can I [C]taste it again?
I need [D]milk
Oh, I [Gm]need your love
Take me in your arms, an [C]eternal embrace
I won't [F]be unkind, oh, I swear this time
I won't [Dm]push you away
Is it [Gm]all dried up? Unconditional love?
Can I [C]taste it again?
[Gm]I ne[C]ed mil[D]k

[Verse 7]
[G]I don't know if I've
been missing
Something that never existed
[D]Don't put me down
[G]Let me back in from the wild
I can be your golden child
[D]Don't put me down

[Outro 1]
[G][D]
[G][D][G][D][G][D]
