Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Verse 1:
    A augmentedA           E MajorE
All the young girls look like ravens
    A augmentedA        E MajorE
As they flock around the pool
     A augmentedA
And they peck at their reflection
    E MajorE        C# minorC#m
In the shadows of men's drool

Verse 2:
    A augmentedA         E MajorE
I could look out there forever
  A augmentedA      E MajorE
Forever has no holes
      A augmentedA
Through the windows of eternity
    E MajorE          C# minorC#m
You can glimpse the passing souls

Chorus 1:
       BB
This party's over
       A augmentedA
The bells are ringing themselves
     BB
I'm going home

Verse 3:
    A augmentedA        E MajorE
She was standing on the table
    A augmentedA       E MajorE
With a message on her skin
A augmentedA
I'm a look right in her eyes
  E MajorE        C# minorC#m
But I could not see in

Verse 4:
    A augmentedA        E MajorE
I have loved you from a distance
A augmentedA         E MajorE
Loved you from up close
     A augmentedA
Like the tiny frog that breathes
   E MajorE       C# minorC#m
I can nestle in your cloak

Chorus 2:
       BB
This party's over
       A augmentedA
The bells are ringing themselves
     BB
I'm going home

Verse 5:
   A augmentedA      E MajorE
I was always in a hurry
   A augmentedA        E MajorE
But I never knew what for
A augmentedA
Paranoia chased me out
     E MajorE          C# minorC#m
And then time just closed the door

Chorus 3:
       BB
This party's over
       A augmentedA
The bells are ringing themselves
     BB
I'm going home
