Original key: E
Capo on 2nd fret
If you find it too hard to play, you can switch the Em7-5 with an Gm or a C7 depending on what you like best
[Verse 1]
[G] [D]
If I had to break it down
[F#m] [G]
I'd say it's the way you love to dance
[Em7-5] [D] [Bm]
Movin' the furniture when my back is turned
[A7] N.C.
The flick of the lights and the world falls away
[Chorus]
[G] [D]
And your office job and your silver hair
[F#m] [G] [Em7-5]
But our shapes in the dark are the reason I've stayed for all these years
[Verse 2]
[G] [D] [F#m]
I thought I was a genius, but now I'm twenty-two
[G] [Em7-5] [D]
And it's startin' to feel like all I know how to do is
[Bm] [A]
Put on a suit and take it away
[Chorus]
[G] [D]
With my fistful of tunes that it's painful to play
[F#m] [G]
Fingernail worlds like favorite seashells
[Em7-5] [D] [Bm] [A7]
They fill up my nights and then they float away
[Verse 3]
[G] [D]
I've got hundreds of gowns, I've got paintings in frames
[F#m] [G]
And a throat that fills with panic every festival day
[Em7-5] [D] [Bm] [A7]
Dutifully fallin' apart for the Princess of Norway
[Chorus]
[G] [D] [F#m] [G]
But you, with your doll's lashes, your infinite t-shirts
[Em7-5] [D] [Bm]
I should've known when your favorite record was the same as my father's
[A7]
You'd take me down
[Verse 4]
[G] [D]
I guess I'll always be this way
[F#m] [G]
Swallowed up by the words, and halfway to space
[Em7-5] [D] [Bm]
But there, by the fire, you offered your hand
[A7]
And as I took it, I loved you, the boy with the plan
[Chorus]
[E] [A] [E] [A]
You felled me clean as a pine
[E] [A] [C7] [D7] [E]
The man with the axe and the lo- ok in his eyes
[Break]
[E] / [A]
[E] / [A]
[Outro]
[E] [A]
We've been through so many hard times
[E] [A]
I'm writin' a love song for you, baby
[E] / [A] / [E]
