C majorC DmDm FF 
G+G
[VERSE 1]
C majorC DmDm
I saw the autumn leaves
Am7Am7 FF
Peel up off the street
C majorC DmDm
Take wing on the balmy breeze
FF G+G
And sweep you off your feet
C majorC DmDm
And you blushed as they scooped you up
Am7Am7 FF
On sugar maple wings
C majorC DmDm
To gaze down on the city below
FF G+G
Ablaze with wondrous things
[CHORUS]
A minorAm G+G FF
Downy feathers kiss your face
G+G
And flutter everywhere
A minorAm G+G FF
Reality is a lovely place
G+G
But I wouldn't wanna live there
C majorC DmDm Am7Am7 FF
I wouldn't wanna live there
C majorC DmDm FF G+G
[VERSE 2]
C majorC DmDm
Weighed down by heavy lids
Am7Am7 FF
And lunar lullabies
C majorC DmDm
I knew you were wide awake
FF G+G
'Cause you smile with your eyes
[CHORUS]
A minorAm G+G FF
Downy feathers kiss your face
G+G
And flutter everywhere
A minorAm G+G FF
Reality is a lovely place
G+G
But I wouldn't wanna live there
[BRIDGE]
C majorC DmDm
From the green belt balcony
Am7Am7 FF
The wildfires look so pretty
C majorC DmDm
Ponderosa canopy
FF G+G
I'd never leave if it were up to me
C majorC DmDm
To the ruby redwood tree
Am7Am7 FF
And to the velvet climbing ivy
C majorC DmDm
Painted all mahogany
FF G+G C majorC
I'd never leave if it were up to me
(If it were up to me)
FF G+G
With a starry brush
FF
Paint the dusk venetian blue
G+G
'Cause in the evening hush
C majorC FF
You'll never believe the view
G+G
And when the leaves return
FF
And their whisperings fill the night
G+G
They'll freeze and burn
C majorC
Where fire and ice collide
C majorC DmDm Am7Am7 FF
Where fire and ice collide
C majorC DmDm FF G+G
[CHORUS 2 & 1]
A minorAm G+G FF
Can you feel a silk embrace
G+G
In the satin air?
A minorAm G+G FF
If we dissolve without a trace
G+G
Will the real world even care?
A minorAm G+G FF
Downy feathers kiss your face
G+G
And flutter everywhere
A minorAm G+G FF
Reality is a lovely place
G+G
But I wouldn't wanna live there
C majorC DmDm Am7Am7 FF
I wouldn't wanna live there

F# minorF#m G+G 
B minorBm 
A augmentedA D MajorD x6
Verse 1:
G+G B minorBm
Met a girl in the parking lot
D MajorD A augmentedA F# minorF#m G+G
And all I did was say hello
B minorBm
Her pepper spray made it rather hard
E minorEm G+G A augmentedA
For me to walk her home
E minorEm B minorBm A augmentedA
But I guess that’s the way it goes
Chorus:
D MajorD A augmentedA
Tell me again was it love at first sight
E minorEm G+G
When I walked by and you caught my eye
D MajorD A augmentedA
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright
G+G B minorBm G+G A augmentedA
Well smile because you’re the deer in the headlights
Interlude: F# minorF#m G+G B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD x4
Verse 2:
G+G B minorBm
Met a girl with a graceful charm
D MajorD A augmentedA F# minorF#m G+G
But when beauty met the beast, he froze
B minorBm
Got the sense I was not her type
E minorEm G+G A augmentedA
By black eye and bloody nose
E minorEm B minorBm A augmentedA
But I guess that’s the way it goes
Chorus
Bridge:
B minorBm A augmentedA
It’s suffocating to say
E minorEm G+G
But the female mystique takes my breath away
D MajorD A augmentedA
So give me a smile or give me a sneer
G+G A augmentedA
‘Cause I’m trying to guess here
Chorus:
D MajorD A augmentedA
Tell me again was it love at first sight
E minorEm G+G
When I walked by and you caught my eye
D MajorD A augmentedA
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright
E minorEm A augmentedA
I’m sorry I ever tried (deer in the headlights)
Chorus:
D MajorD A augmentedA
Tell me again was it love at first sight
E minorEm G+G
When I walked by and you caught my eye
D MajorD A augmentedA
Didn’t you know love could shine this bright
G+G B minorBm G+G A augmentedA
If life was a game, you would never play nice
G+G B minorBm G+G A augmentedA
If love was a beam, you’d be blind in both eyes
G+G B minorBm G+G A augmentedA
Put your sunglasses on ‘cause you’re a deer in the headlights
Ending:
F# minorF#m G+G B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD
F# minorF#m G+G B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD
(You’re the deer in the headlights)

Bridge:

I've been sleeping with the nightlight unplugged,

So wake me if you're out there.
Chorus:
G+G A augmentedA
Living close to the ground,

It's seventh heaven because there are angels all around,

B minorBm A augmentedA G+G
I keep my knees black and blue 'cause they often hit the hardwood floor,

My raw candy passion is bitter-sweet,
C majorC G+G
Onto the teeth,
FF C majorC G+G
'Cause she would rather fall in chocolate,
C majorC FF C majorC G+G
Than fall in love, especially with me.
DmDm C majorC FF G+G
I stood under the waterfall,
DmDm C majorC FF G+G
With a kiwi pineapple parasol,

'Cause I can never find the courage to ask her to dinner, or even to dance,
DmDm C majorC FF G+G
Don't sweat under your overcoat,

'Cause my heart can't hover this paddle boat,

HOW I BECAME THE SEA
Tuning: Standard
Capo: None
Verse 1:
B minorBm A augmentedA
June was the lobster shell
B minorBm
I dug by hand
G+G
A augmentedA haven that hid me well
A augmentedA
Beneath the sand
B minorBm A augmentedA
The white windy waves washed in
B minorBm
But I stayed dry
The great breakers broke again
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
'Cause I'm on and off inside
Chorus:
G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
And then, when the empress run aground
D/F#D/F# G+G
And my eyes turned blue and green
B minorBm A augmentedA
I heard a gorgeous sound
D MajorD G+G
And that's when it became a dream
B minorBm A augmentedA
When the sky fell in
D/F#D/F# G+G
When the hurricanes came for me
B minorBm A augmentedA
I could finally crash again
D MajorD B minorBm G+G B minorBm G+G A augmentedA
And that's how I became the sea
Verse 2 (same as verse 1):
I wrenched the engines off
And dragged them down
The depths turned the iron soft
As they swiftly drowned
And I brought the ocean side
To its rusty knees
As I felt the even tide
Deep in my shallow dreams
Chorus:
G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
And then, when the empress run aground
D/F#D/F# G+G
