Intro: D A Em
Verse 1: D Bm A G
Did u hear my whisper?
Said how I felt about you
Breathe in and out you
But they doubt I think about you.
Verse 2: D Bm A G
I felt you shiver,
When we climbed out the window.
Like a black widow,
Mother told me not to go.
Pre-Chorus 1: Em F#m (x2) D
Ah, ah,
Can't stop the match and gasoline.
Ah, ah,
We are the refugees.
Chorus: D D A G
Oh our love was so overwhelming it,
Took the neighbors I was the son that took the daughter.
Oh our joy it infected everyone
Ran like fire and took the children all children.
Verse 3: D Bm A G
And as we came down
The blades of grass were bending
Under our bare feet,
Walking on to love and aging.
Pre-Chorus 2: Em F#m (x2) D
Ah, ah,
Things are exactly how they seem.
Ah, ah
We are the refugees.
Chorus (x2)
Bridge: D A (x3) G Bm A
We Can
Years under feet
0, 2, 3
Mississippi
You and then and me
Verse 4: D Bm A G
We ran for years there
Out shuffling in the darkness.
You were the compass
I was all the light that saved us.
Chorus (x2)
Post-Chorus (x2): A G (x2) D
Oh our love was so overwhelming it
Oh our joy it infected everyone
