Dan’s Big Awesome Acoustic Songbook

The Goo Goo Dolls - Iris

Originally in Bm via open tuning, I play in Em and *don’t* go up on the chorus

Em7D/F#Cadd9/GCadd9/Gx 2

Vox on the 5

And I’d gGive up foA7sus4rever to Cadd9touch you

Cause I kEm7now that you Em7/Dfeel me somCadd9ehow

You’re the Gclosest tA7sus4o heaven that Cadd9I’ll ever be

And I Em7don’t want to Em7/Dgo home right Cadd9now

And Gall I can A7sus4taste is this Cadd9moment

And Em7all I can Em7/Dbreathe is your lCadd9ife

Cause Gsooner or A7sus4later it’s Cadd9over

I just Em7don’t want to Em7/Dmiss you tonigCadd9ht

Don’t go up here if you’re in Em

And I dEm7on’t want the Em7/Dworld to Cadd9see me

Cause I Em7don’t think that tEm7/Dhey’d understCadd9and

When Em7everything’s Em7/Dmade to be bCadd9roken

I just Em7want you to Em7/Dknow who I Cadd9am

Em7Em7/DCadd9Cadd9x 2

And you Gcan’t fight the A7sus4tears that ain’t cCadd9oming

Or the Em7moment of tEm7/Druth in your Cadd9lies

When Geverything A7sus4feels like the mCadd9ovies

Yeah you Em7bleed just to Em7/Dknow you’re aCadd9live

And I dEm7on’t want the Em7/Dworld to Cadd9see me

Cause I Em7don’t think that tEm7/Dhey’d understCadd9and

When Em7everything’s Em7/Dmade to be bCadd9roken

I just Em7want you to Em7/Dknow who I Cadd9am

With hard stops

Em7D/F#Cadd9/GCadd9/Gx 2

Now soft

Em7D/F#Cadd9/GCadd9/Gx 2

And I dEm7on’t want the Em7/Dworld to Cadd9see me

Cause I Em7don’t think that tEm7/Dhey’d understCadd9and

When Em7everything’s Em7/Dmade to be bCadd9roken

I just Em7want you to Em7/Dknow who I Cadd9am

And I dEm7on’t want the Em7/Dworld to Cadd9see me

Cause I Em7don’t think that tEm7/Dhey’d understCadd9and

When Em7everything’s Em7/Dmade to be bCadd9roken

I just Em7want you to Em7/Dknow who I Cadd9am
