D          Gmaj7      G6
I care little for my body she said

D          Gmaj7            G6
I couldn't care less about my soul

D          Gmaj7             G6
and as she led me upstairs in whispers

D         Gmaj7        G6
my whole summer turned cold
 
 
 

D    E          G6
I'll lead you upstairs

D    E          G6
I'll lead you upstairs

D                E
If you've got no worries

     G6
then I've got no cares

D    E          G6
I'll lead you upstairs
 
 
 

D          Gmaj7           G6
I told her people had been talking

D          Gmaj7        G6
about how dark she was inside

D           Gmaj7                 G6
she said my hopes are buried in the soil

D           Gmaj7    G6
deep in the earth outside

D           Gmaj7         G6
and with one twist of the world

D         Gmaj7       G6
she brought me to her side

D         Gmaj7       G6
she asked me for the truth one time

D     Gmaj7       G6
and all I did was lie
 
 
 
 

D    E          G6
I'll lead you upstairs

D    E          G6
I'll lead you upstairs

D                E
If you've got no worries

     G6
then I've got no cares

D    E          G6
I'll lead you upstairs

Lyrics

I care little for my body she said
I couldn't care less about my soul
and as she led me upstairs in whispers
my whole summer turned cold

I'll lead you upstairs
I'll lead you upstairs
If you've got no worries
then I've got no cares
I'll lead you upstairs

I told her people had been talking
about how dark she was inside
she said my hopes are buried in the soil
deep in the earth outside
and with one twist of the world
she brought me to her side
she asked me for the truth one time
and I all I did was lie

I'll lead you upstairs
I'll lead you upstairs
If you've got no worries
then I've got no cares
I'll lead you upstairs
