Biography:
It’s hard to believe that someone so young could be bursting with so much talent; but listen to Ravyn Lenae and you’ll quickly realize that age is truly just a number. At 17 years old, the classically trained singer/songwriter is taking the music world by storm with her inimitable style, which seamlessly melds elements of R&B, Electronic, Soul and Hip-Hop. As Pitchfork declared, “She roars. She soars. She has the right.”
Born and raised on Chicago’s often turbulent south side

[Chorus]
Dmaj7 F#m A E7 E9 Dmaj7
Fall onto the ground
F#m A Amaj7 E7 E9 Dmaj7
Do not make a sound
F#m A E7 E9 Dmaj7
Can we be like children
F#m A Amaj7 E7 E9 Dmaj7
Dancing in the crowd
F#m A E7 E9 Dmaj7
Fall onto the ground
F#m A Amaj7 E7 E9 Dmaj7
Do not make a sound
F#m A E7 Dmaj7
Can we, can we, can we be like children
F#m A Amaj7 E7 E9
Dancing in the crowd
[Verse 1]
Dmaj7 F#m
Sleeping side by side
A
Our fingers intertwined
E7 E9 Dmaj7 F#m
We never seem to find the right things to say
A
When we are awake
Amaj7 E7 E9 Dmaj7
I can not close your eyes
F#m
We be up so high
A
As if we're trying to hide
E7
The things we'll never find out
E9 Dmaj7 F#m
Wish you would say
A Amaj7 E7
That we'll be okay
[Verse 2]
Dmaj7 F#m
Our stomachs' not in knots no more
A E7 E9
Maybe I'm not everything you got no more
Dmaj7 F#m A Amaj7 E7 E9 Dmaj7
I used to listen to your heartbeat while you're dreaming softly
F#m A E7 E9 Dmaj7
I wish you would have told me that you do not know me
F#m A Amaj7 E7 E9
I wish you would have spoke before our fingers broke
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Dmaj7 F#m A
10:30p.m. your dreaming begins
E7 E9 Dmaj7
With no worries and stories of life way back when
F#m A
When your sister would kiss you and tell you she miss you
Amaj7 E7 E9 N.C.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry that that had to end
[Bridge]
Dmaj7 E C#m
11:30 you're speaking slowly
D
You say you're lonely
Dmaj7 E
You say you wish that you could hold me
C#m D
If I would not pretend that I needed him
Dmaj7 E
12 oh 10 if we would not pretend that we could be friends
C#m D Dmaj7 E
But 11 if you would not extend your beautiful hand to touch me
C#m D Dmaj7
1:30 you're so so lucky that I do not trust me
E C#m
You only speak with your hands
D Dmaj7
So tell me how do I understand
E C#m
How do I understand
D Dmaj7
But can can can (can, can can can)
E C#m D Dmaj7
But can we, can we, can we be like children
E
Speaking right to me

You always ramble in your sleep
