🎸 Verse 1:
Bm7                              A
  I woke up thinking about the knife fight
Bm7                    A
   I saw in Istanbul
Bm7                            A
   The fellas left together laughing and bleeding
Bm7                       A
   Oh, and the moon was full

🎸 Verse 2:
Bm7                          A
   It all happened in The Little Wing Café
Bm7                     A
    It's easy to find
      Bm7                                         A
Just follow the sound of backwards guitars and screaming
      A
And there you are
Bm7                            A
   But why is it on my mind?

🎸 Chorus:
            Fmaj7
Is it 'cause we
F#7  Fmaj7                Cmaj7
          Communicate disastrously
Fmaj7           F#7
     I want you, I love you, I need you
Fmaj7                        Cmaj7
     What's that supposed to mean?

🎸 Verse 3:
Bm7                          A
    We burn so very, very brightly
Bm7                     A
    Scares me to death
Bm7                             A
    Is this our Chandrasekhar limit
Bm7                          A
    Oh, say it under your breath

🎸 Verse 4:
Bm7               A
    Next time I drive you to distraction
Bm7                       A
   Let's pack up a flask
          Bm7
And we'll park in the mist
         Bm7
By the yawning abyss
     A
And list all of the stupid shit
Bm7                                 A
    We've ever said to each other and laugh

🎸 Chorus:
          Fmaj7
Even when we
F#7 Fmaj7               Cmaj7
         Communicate disastrously
Fmaj7               F#7                 Fmaj7
     I want you, I love you, I need you
Cmaj7
Yeah

🎸 Outro:

                     Bm7   A
Hallelujah, buy us a pint
                     Bm7   A
Hallelujah, buy us a pint
                     Bm7   A
Hallelujah, buy us a pint
                     Bm7   A
Hallelujah, buy us a pint
                     Bm7   A
Hallelujah, buy us a pint
                     Bm7   A
Hallelujah, buy us a pint
