Bb    Bm   Bb Bb    Bbmaj7

🎸 Verse 1:
                            Bb     Bb/F
I don't want to cry in your t-shirt ever again
                     Bb
Well, my anger was a compliment
Bb               Bb
I like how your brain works
                                 Bb
Magical thinkers trying to be friends
        Bbmaj7
Tried to let you forget me but
   Bb
My Celtic cross was heavy
       Bb/F
When it hit your fucking teeth
    Gm             Bb
I'm sorry you felt undermined
       Bbmaj7
Now I'm trying to make a racket
        Bb
In the back of your mind

🎸 Chorus:
                  Bb     Cb/F
I try to wait the night out
        Bm7
Try to keep the light out
           Bm   Bb
We've only the moon left to outsmart
               Bb
But we cannot want our way out of the dark

🎸 Verse 2:
Bb                          Bb/F
 I've got agency but imagine me
Laying naked in your lap
         Bb
Before a gathering of screaming fans
I'm your guitar
                         Bb
Mute me gently with the palm of your hand
Bbmaj7
So self-conscious
Awareness was the catalyst
Bb/F
 I'm scared
I close my eyes and picture this
Gm7
 Summer corn a tea tree toothpick
Bb
 A new song that makes you wanna make music

🎸 Chorus:
                   Bb     Cb/F
We try to wait the night out
        Bm7
Try to keep the light out
           Bm   Bb
We've only the moon left to outsmart
               Bb                      Bb
But we cannot want our way out of the dark

🎸 Interlude:
Bm7  Bm  Bb       Cb

🎸 Bridge:
Gm7
 I imagine you
              Bb
Back in the cocoon
I know you miss your mommy
You can change your name
Bb
 I know you didn't get to do
                      Cb
Everything you wanted to
     Bb
You leave your body
     Gm                   Bb
Just one more ice cream scoop out of your brain
                   Bb
Pink matter, dark matter
Glass shattered, corporate ladder
                       Cb
Cake batter, splatter paint
                           Bb
Patron saint, all this pain

🎸 Chorus:
We try to wait the night out
        Bm7
Try to keep the light out
                Bb
We've only the moon left to outsmart
               Bb
But we cannot want our way out of the dark

🎸 Outro:
Bb    Bm7   Bm Bbmaj7      Bb Bb
Bm7    Bbmaj7      Bb     Bbmaj7   Bb
