Intro:
F#F# B7B7 F#F# B7B7

Verse 1:
F#F#          B7B7
Oh, what's a devil to do
F#F#              B7B7
 When those old delusions so tried and true
      Ab7Ab7        B7B7
Don't come through like they used to?

F#F#           B7B7
Ugh, all my money's run out
F#F#         B7B7
 I blew it all on a cumulus cloud
     Ab7Ab7           B7B7
That dissipated so fast, seems the good times never last

Chorus:
   F#7F#7            Ab7Ab7           B minorBm
And I always fall flat on my back, like an upside-down cat
         F#F#        DbmDbm
But is bad luck really such a crime?
           Ab7Ab7          B minorBm                 F#F#
If you won't be my valentine, could you at least give me a little bit of sympathy?

Verse 2:

F#F# B7B7 F#F# B7B7

(Um, uh, oh... just like... You know what, like, never mind... Um...)

F#F#          B7B7
Oh, I made a silly mistake (what'd you do?)
F#F#       B7B7        Ab7Ab7
 I've given up more than I can take (uh oh!)
     B7B7
And left hollows in my wake

   F#F#       B7B7
My structure's compromised
(I'm safe, I'm whole, I've got it under control)

F#F#            B7B7
 But you still batter at all my fault lines
(I'm safe, I'm whole, I've got it under control)
      Ab7Ab7             B7B7
I can't run, I can't hide, but you can't say I didn't try
(And I will protect you even if you won't protect me too)

Chorus:
F#7F#7          Ab7Ab7          B minorBm
To retreat back into me like a catabolic seed
         F#F#          DbmDbm
I want to destroy everything that's mine
           Ab7Ab7          B minorBm                  F#F#
If you won't be my valentine, could you at least give me a little bit of sympathy?

F#F# B7B7 F#F# B7B7 Ab7Ab7 B7B7

Outro:
F#F#         Ab7Ab7         B7B7          F#F#
I don't care if I'm losing myself in the garden of earthly delights
DbmDbm        AbmAbm           BB      F#F#
 I could drop dead right where I stand, and I wouldn't mind
B7B7 Ab7Ab7 DbmDbm     F#F#
I     wouldn't mind
