Iris Lyrics with Chords

[Verse 1]
And I’d [D]give up [Em7]forever to [G]touch you
‘Cause I [Bm7]know that you [Asus4]feel me some[G]how
You’re the [D]closest to [Em7]heaven that [G]I’ll ever be
And I [Bm7]don’t wanna [Asus4]go home right [G]now

[Verse 2]
And [D]all I can [Em7]taste is this [G]moment
And [Bm7]all I can [Asus4]breathe is your [G]life
And [D]sooner or [Em7]later, it’s [G]over
I just [Bm7]don’t wanna [Asus4]miss you [G]tonight

[Chorus]
And I [Bm7]don’t want the [Asus4]world to [G]see me
‘Cause I [Bm7]don’t think that [Asus4]they’d [G]understand
When [Bm7]everything’s [Asus4]made to be [G]broken
I just [Bm7]want you to [Asus4]know who I [G]am

[Verse 3]
And you [D]can’t fight the [Em7]tears that ain’t [G]coming
Or the [Bm7]moment of [Asus4]truth in your [G]lies
When [D]everything [Em7]feels like the [G]movies
Yeah, you [Bm7]bleed just to [Asus4]know you’re [G]alive

[Chorus]
And I [Bm7]don’t want the [Asus4]world to [G]see me
‘Cause I [Bm7]don’t think that [Asus4]they’d [G]understand
When [Bm7]everything’s [Asus4]made to be [G]broken
I just [Bm7]want you to [Asus4]know who I [G]am

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
And I [Bm7]don’t want the [Asus4]world to [G]see me
‘Cause I [Bm7]don’t think that [Asus4]they’d [G]understand
When [Bm7]everything’s [Asus4]made to be [G]broken
I just [Bm7]want you to [Asus4]know who I [G]am

[Chorus]
And I [Bm7]don’t want the [Asus4]world to [G]see me
‘Cause I [Bm7]don’t think that [Asus4]they’d [G]understand
When [Bm7]everything’s [Asus4]made to be [G]broken
I just [Bm7]want you to [Asus4]know who I [G]am

[Outro]
I just [Bm7]want you to [Asus4]know who I [G]am
I just [Bm7]want you to [Asus4]know who I [G]am
I just [Bm7]want you to [Asus4]know who I [G]am
