Verse 1: Em Am Thoughts manifest in a wink C B Insanity it beckons again Em Am Is this where the loud part begins? C B Right in the momentary bliss in the midst of a toxin Em Am I shall be led into temptation C B I shall not fear for you're with I Em Am We're buried deep in conversation C B Ask what I'm think and I lie Pre-Chorus: Em D G And while she could give or take Em D G I guess that I'm not build that way
Chorus: Em G What if it's fatal, be all and end all C B What if the wait was inconsequential Em G Too late to surface, watching the tide turn C B Em Am C B Know how it ends but still feel suspenseful. Verse 2: Em Am What would the neighbourhood think C B When the twitching of curtains insist Em Am That empty in your heart that persists C B Through a pinhole, a camera-obscura perceived on the atrium Em Am I know he speaks perfect prose cos C B On Sinai's peak, he took my hand Em Am We miss her curse words and condemnation C B Em Am C B The only thing he understands oh, will he understand Pre-Chorus: Em D G And while he could give or take Em D G I guess that I'm not build that way Chorus: Em G What if it's fatal, be all and end all C B What if the wait was inconsequential Em G Too late to surface, watching the tide turn C B Know how it ends but still feel suspenseful Instrumental: Em B C G Am Em B C G Am Bridge: If you are interested in the tabs: e|------------------| B|------10----------| G|------------------| D|------------------|x6 A|---9--------------| E|------------------| e|------------------| B|------10----------| G|------------------| D|------------------|x6 A|---8--------------| E|------------------| e|------------------| B|------7-----------| G|------------------| D|------------------|x6 A|---5--------------| E|------------------| e|------------------| B|------2-----------| G|------------------| D|------------------|x3 A|---0--------------| E|------------------| e|------------------| B|------3-----------| G|------------------| D|------------------|x3 A|---2--------------| E|------------------| Em B C Please, can I just take a bit more for myself? G Am Em An angel or guinea, a year off my health B C I wish you all could understand the things that I said G Am Em I'd love to come help you, I'd love to translate D B C Each softly spoken rhyme sew it right to your tongue G Am Em Waft the amber rays, arranged on your cerebra. B C You come to know exactly what I meant to mean G Am Em We make up, we cry goodbye, a kiss on the cheek B C You make it so hard for a boy to believe G Am Em There's anything beyond what I think and I see. B C You make it so hard for a boy to believe B Em D G Em D G This moment could hurt you, but it won't hurt me Chorus: Em G What if it's fatal, be all and end all (While she could give or take) C Am What if the wait was inconsequential Em G Too late to surface, watching the tide turn (I guess that I'm not built that way) C Am Know how it ends but still feel suspenseful Em G What if it's fatal, be all and end all (While she could give or take) C Am What if the wait was inconsequential Em G Too late to surface, watching the tide turn (I guess that I'm not built that way) C Am Know how it ends but still feel suspenseful Outro: Em G What if it's fatal, be all and end all C B What if the wait was inconsequential Em G Too late to surface, watching the tide turn C B Em Am Know how it ends but still feel suspenseful C B But darling it's not your fault
