πΈ Intro:
G
πΈ Verse 1:
G Bm Em D
You could absolutely break my heart
C G Em D
That's how I know we're in love
G Bm Em D
I don't need the sample of the scar
C G
So put the down the knife
Bm D
We're not swapping blood
C G G G/F# Em
Isn't it enough that we stripped down to our skin?
G C D
Cold and porcelain like bathers in a painting
C G G/F# Em
And I told you of your past lives, every man you've ever been
G Em D
It wasn't flattering, but you listened like it mattered
πΈ Chorus:
C G G/F# Em
I feel crazy in ways I'd never say
C G G/F# Em
Will you still love me if it turns out I'm insane?
C G C D G G/F# Em D C
I know what you'll say, but it helps to hear you say it anyway
πΈ Instrumental:
G G/F# Em D A C
πΈ Verse 2:
G Bm
Some October in the future
Em D
I'll run out of trash TV
C G Em D
And I'll be feeling lonely, so I'll walk to karaoke
G G/F# Em
Sing the song you wrote about me
C D
Never once checking the words
G Em
I hope that no one sings along
C D
I hope that I'm not a regular
πΈ Chorus:
C
Damn, that makes me sad
G Em
It doesn't have to be like that
G Em D
If you rewrite your life, may I still play a part?
πΈ Verse 3:
G Em
In the next one, will you find me?
C D
I'll be the boy with the pink carnation
G D C
Pinned to my lapel who looks like hell and asks for help
D A
And if you do
I'll know it's you
C G D Em
I can't imagine you without the same smile in your eyes
C G D Em
There is somethin' about you that I will always recognize
D
And if you don't remember
C G
I will try to remind you of the humming birds
πΈ Bridge:
Em
You know the ones
C D
And the baby scorpion
G Em
And the winter and the halo
C D
And the walk we took in the red woods
πΈ Outro:
G D Em D C
I could go on and on and on (And on and on) and I will
G D Em D C
Go on and on and on until it all comes back
