[Verse 1]
[Am]Mother [Em]may I sleep with danger, please
It's [Am]been knocking on my door
since I was seventeen
Oh, oh, and [F]you saw but
[Am]you choose to [C]ignore[Em]
But [Baug]now it's more than a wish,
it's a dream

[Verse 2]
Now [Baug]I don't unders[Em]tand how
you can hold me back
You said, [Am]"Baby learn your lessons
when you step on cracks"
Oh, there's no time to [C]fall,
existence [Am]would call[C][Em]
And [Baug]see experimenting

[Verse 3]
[Em]
And I guess there's just
no other [Am]way
I've been drawn to a new es[C]cape,
ay
'Cause I'm wearing bamboo and
I'm picking [Baug]up zoots

[Verse 4]
I've slipped away
[Em]
Now I'm tonguing on [Am]a Rizla
And you sachi snows a deal [C]for us
Oh, and dangers got me wrapped
up 'round [Baug]his thumb
But it's no trap 'cause I'm in love
[Em]

[Verse 5]
I said I'm [Am]in love
I said I'm [B]in [C]love
Yeah, oh, [Baug]oh, oh, oh[B][Baug][Em]
I said I'm in [Am]love
I said I'm in [C]love, yeah
[Baug][B][Baug]

[Verse 6]
[Em]Mother may I sleep with danger, please
It's [Am]been knocking on my door
since I was seventeen
Oh, oh, and you [Em]saw but
[C]you choose [Em]to ignore
[Am]But [Em]now i[Baug]t's more than a wish,
it's a dream

[Verse 7]
Now [B]I don't u[Em]nderstand how
you can hold me back
You said, [Am]"Baby learn your lessons
when you step on cracks"
[Em]Oh n[C]o, there's no ti[Am]me to fall
[Em]how [Baug]you go, [B]oh[Baug]

[Verse 8]
[Em]I'll get what I want, you see
[Am]'Cause I like to tread so carefully
And you [C]won't, won't, won't,
[Am]won'[C]t ever[Baug] know[B]
[Baug]So mothe[Em]r may sleep
with danger, please
[Am]It's been knocking n my door
since I was seventeen
[C]Oh, oh, [Em]and you saw
But [B]now it's more than a wish, it's a dream
