Nemesis chords by Alanis Morissette

Intro: Bm

Verse 1:
Bm                G                             D     A  Bm
So I opened the front door, you walked in all handsome
      A           G
And ready for something you?saw?in my eyes
      Bm                    G
Right?here, we sat and we tripped?out
                 D   A  Bm         A          Em
Saw celestial mosaics,    and I fell and I crawled over and held your hand

Pre-Chorus
    G      A        Bm
And nobody worried about the roof being blown off
   G          A             D          F#
So I went farther than I'd ever gone before

Bm                     D
Change, you are my nemesis
              A               G
Transition, I hold my breath
                 Em           A           Bm
This about-face, I'm excited, I'm excited yet
                   D             A              G
I'm filled with despair, anticipation and dread
                               F#m              Bm
This metamorphosis closed the door and opened a window

Verse 2:
Bm                   G                               D       A  Bm
And so I climbed the stairs and bled, and here was a starseed
       A                                      Bm
Right here he came to us in the bed in our bedroom
                     G
And you trusted me enough to follow me anywhere
       D              A  Bm      A            Em
Or the other way around,     the other way around as well

Pre-Chorus
    G             A            Bm
And I blocked my nose and dove in the deep end
    G             A            D             F#
And swam like my life depended on it, and it did


Bm                     D
Change, you are my nemesis
              A               G
Transition, I hold my breath
                 Em           A           Bm
This about-face, I'm excited, I'm excited yet
                   D             A              G
I'm filled with despair, anticipation and dread
             Em               F#m               Bm
This metamorphosis closed the door and opened a window

Em  D
Oh, no
F#  G  Em  A#m  F#
Oh, no

Verse 3:
Bm                       G                     D   A  Bm
Right here, in this very backyard, we promised forever
    A          G                             Bm
And we put our helmets on and threw the confetti
                     G
And then there's the phone call
           D          A          Bm          A           Em
Telling me to breathe in through my nose and out my mouth

Bridge:
                 G            A       Bm
And out came our girl, faster than we thought
    G        A        D     F#m
And now I am beyond recognition
                 Bm                            D
I guess that's a good thing, and still, I want to go deeper


Bm                     D
Change, you are my nemesis
              A               G
Transition, I hold my breath
                 Em           A           Bm
This about-face, I'm excited, I'm excited yet
                   D             A              G
I'm filled with despair, anticipation and dread
                               F#m              G       E  D  F#  Bm
This metamorphosis closed the door and opened a window

Final: Bm  C#m  Bm  C#m  Bm
