E  G  C  Bb

Verse 1:

    E              G   C
The answer's always no
   E              G        C     Bb
To questions of a private nature
    E                 G   C
The lights are always low
   E             G     C      Bb
In settings of a conversation
    E             G    C
The ankle trips a wire
      E            G    C      Bb
While phasing into oscillation
      E                G   C
We'll take it while we go
    E                G    C
And leave behind our reservations
  Bb    B
It goes down

Chorus:

     E         D            C             D
It's never the same and the nights always glow
        A                  C            D
There's nothing to see and nowhere to go
     E       D          C       D
It's easy to say you're happier when you're disturbed
    A                   C                 D
The grey lights in your head getting down the germs
    E        D            C             D
I'm lazy and tame and the chimes always blow
  A                       C                 D
A glimmering sound on the breeze when you go
     E       D         C               D             A                 C
It's never a shame and I've learned to live with the worms underground
C                  E
  Getting down the germs

Verse 2:

      E             G     C
She's happy when it grows
   E               G       C    Bb
To heights above a normal nature
    E              G    C
The spirit always shows
  E             G     C    Bb
A life beyond a resignation
    E                 G     C
The hammer breaks the toes
   E          G    C      Bb
A sliver of a conversation
     E            G    C
It's just above a hum
      E             G       C
We'll talk about it at the station
  Bb    B
It goes down


Chorus:

     E         D            C             D
It's never the same and the nights always glow
        A                  C            D
There's nothing to see and nowhere to go
     E       D          C       D
It's easy to say you're happier when you're disturbed
    A                    C                 D
The green lights in your head getting down the germs
    E        D            C             D
I'm lazy and tame and the chimes always blow
  A                       C                 D
A glimmering sound on the breeze when you go
     E       D         C               D              A
It's never a shame and I've learned to live with the worms underground
C                                G
  Getting down, getting down the germs
