• Capo on 1st

Intro:

D MajorD   G+G   D MajorD   A augmentedA

Verse 1:
       D MajorD
What does it mean when
         G+G
Your arms fall asleep? And
        D MajorD
How do you get rid of hornets
       A augmentedA
Before the weekend?
         B minorBm
When did they say we should
        G+G
Turn back the clocks?
          D MajorD
Why do they always say everything's for the best
         A augmentedA
When everybody knows it's not?

Chorus:
        D MajorD
I don't wanna talk
            G+G
Because I don't wanna fight
        D MajorD
We always get bogged down in the heavy ****
          A augmentedA
You know what it's like

Verse 3:
          B minorBm
But I don't wanna leave
          G+G
And I don't wanna hide
       D MajorD
I just don't wanna run
      A augmentedA
Into you tonight
       E minorEm
I need to decide
          G+G
What to do with my hands
         D MajorD
Turn you into a spiderweb again
        C majorC      G+G
Something everybody understands

Chorus:
        E minorEm
I don't wanna talk
            G+G
Because I don't wanna fight
        D MajorD
W? always get bogged down in the heavy ****
          C majorC   G+G
You know what it's like

Verse 4:
          D MajorD
I don't need to be rescued
          G+G
I just need to be pinned
        D MajorD
God's in the decals
            A augmentedA
And the words on your skin
       D MajorD
Not being in love with you
         G+G
It isn't easy to fake
        D MajorD
When I don't know if you're ever gonna come back
A augmentedA
 From your cigarette break

Verse 1:
       B minorBm
What does it mean when
         G+G
Your arms fall asleep? And
        D MajorD
How do you get rid of hornets
      A augmentedA
Before the weekend?
         D MajorD
When did they say we should
        G+G
Turn back the clocks?
             D MajorD
Why do they always say everything's for the best
        A augmentedA
When everybody knows it's not?

Chorus:
        E minorEm
I don't wanna talk to you
            G+G
Because I don't wanna fight
        D MajorD

Into you tonight
       C majorC
