Verse 1:

Em          Dm                   G
I should've known right from the start
      Cmaj7       B7
You'd somehow get away from me
      Em             B7
Like height abandons gravity
      Em          B7          G
Like time erased eternity, you see?

Chorus:

Em          Dm                   Em
I should've known right from the eyes
          Dm

We should've stayed a world apart
     Cmaj7          B7
Like lovers live in secrecy
     Em          B7
Like heaven to a priest would be
  Em            B7              G
A flaccid heart preceded me, you see?

We should've stayed a world apart

Bridge:

Em          Dm           C
Happy lives come through God's animation
Em         Dm        Cmaj7
Love is no fun, it's just aggravation
Dm           Em           Fmaj7        E7
Tell me, why I should cry when it goes away?

Chorus:

Em          Dm                   Em
I should've known right from the eyes
          Dm
Should've known right from the
Em            G                    C
I should have known right from the start

Verse 3:
Em            Dm            G
You should've slain the Bonaparte
  Cmaj7         B7
A sign of your naivety
  Em              B7
Distracted by the scenery
  Em            B7              G
A flaccid heart preceded me, you see?

Em          Dm                   Em
I should've known right from the eyes (I should have known)

Should've known right from the
Em            G                    C
I should have known right from the start (I should have known)
