VERSE 1
C majorC G+G DmDm FF
From every shadow they are things that follow you
From your late night dead end job from the old neighborhoods where you grew
There's a falling satellite (The thought keeps me awake at night)
There's a chocolate fondue (There's no nutritional value)
There's a ground invasion (with complete colour co-ordination)
There's a sleepover screen (A augmentedA bed is not a trampoline)
There's a hymn with a hand on the heart
C majorC G+G DmDm FF
And all these things will follow you
C majorC G+G DmDm FF C majorC G+G DmDm FF
And all these things will follow you

VERSE 2
C majorC G+G DmDm FF
Staying locked inside all day is no big deal
But I'm yet to read a travel brochure that could change the way I feel
It's suffocating in the car (It's just the way some families are)
It's a book you'll get around to read (It's a pet that you forgot to feed)
It's an ex-boyfriend you can't forget (a godparent you never met)
BRIDGE

VERSE 3
C majorC G+G DmDm FF
Did you steal my pen I left it here? (You mean the one behind you ear?)
You're just a piece of work that's all (Take me and hang me on the wall)
Away from where the guards linger (You touched the painting with your finger)
And I was placed under gallery arrest (It's a chance to wear your Sunday best)
BRIDGE

And look sharp on the stand and raise my right shaking hand
