My Own Sunrise
Crash Test Dummies
ALBUM:A Worms Life

(D)When we met it was in the (G) hot green (C) jungle  (G)
(D)Your perfect flesh impervious to (G) anything (C)fungal (G)
(D)You would sweat (Em) coconut milk
And(C)i'd lie awake, (G) restless with(D)the heat there in the
(Em)night

CHORUS***

(C)Dawn would (G) come
(D)And I would start to (Em) feel my own sunrise
but(C) you'd just (G)lie,(C) sleeping  (G)

And so we went away in search of gentler breezes
When we arrived I longed to lie and rustle in your grasses
But you would not permit me to retire there
None but a fly might settle on the meadow of your leg

CHORUS***

Then we moved until we reached the tundra in the winter
Of course I longed to kiss her frosty teeth in the cold air
But now I'v grown bloated on seal fat
Not even flies might settle on the meadow of her leg

CHORUS***
