Version 1
Chords can alternatively be played with capo 2 on all strings except the high e, which would be kept open,
and would then look like (thanks @simparent):
G: 32000(0, open e)
Em7: 02200(0, open e)
Cadd9: 03200(0, open e)
Otherwise, I find the best voicings to be:
G: 320002
Em7: 022002
Cadd9: 032002
[Intro]
G Em7 Cadd9
G Em7 Cadd9
[Verse 1]
G Em7 Cadd9
Freezing at the edge of the bed
G Em7 Cadd9
Chewing a cigarette and repeating
G Em7 Cadd9
Shadows of the words I've said
G Em7 Cadd9
I don't wanna blame you, I don't wanna blame
[Verse 2]
G Em7 Cadd9
The stars bloom in the warm summer night
G Em7 Cadd9
They have a clear view without the bedroom light
G Em7 Cadd9
They don't wanna name you, they don't wanna name
G Em7 Cadd9
[Verse 3]
G Em7 Cadd9
Dragons have silent eyes
G Em7 Cadd9
Cracked eggshells, fireflies
G Em7 Cadd9
I don't wanna tame you, I don't wanna tame
G Em7 Cadd9
[Verse 4]
G Em7 Cadd9
When the hot sand burns my feet
G Em7 Cadd9
You have cool hands, you are sweet
G Em7 Cadd9
I don't wanna changе you, I don't wanna change
G Em7 Cadd9
[Verse 5]
G Em7 Cadd9
Carnations into the vase
G Em7 Cadd9
Unfold your clothеs out of the case
G Em7 Cadd9
I just want a place with you, I just want a place
G Em7 Cadd9
[Verse 6]
G Em7 Cadd9
As the coastline is shaped by the wind
G Em7 Cadd9
As we make love and you're on my skin
G Em7 Cadd9
You are changing me, you are changing
G Em7 Cadd9
G Em7 Cadd9
G Em7 Cadd9
G Em7 Cadd9
[Verse 7]
G Em7 Cadd9
Stars bloom on a warm summer night
G Em7 Cadd9
They have a clear view without the bedroom light
G Em7 Cadd9
I just want a place with you, I just want a place
