Verse 1:
Dsus2
  Your dog just bit me, but I know he didn't mean it
         A7sus4
Why does every good intention tend to need me to believe it?
Dsus2
  You called and lit me up, then told me to stay seated
       A7sus4
Always asking me our ending, interrupting to complete it

Chorus:
G
  And 'cause you tell yourself this story more than half the time
Gbm
  You've got the rest of us in orbit like your satellites
Em
  And while I'm churning at a rate that turns the years to light
G                          Dsus2       Gbm
  You aren't watching as I bandage up another bite
G
  And I make such a deal of using words syllabically
Gbm
  So you're too busy sounding out to shuffle after me
Em
  There's nothing you like less than knowing someone's past your grip

Post-chorus:
G                             Dsus2
  You put me into space, then hate me when I ask for it
Em                            G                      Dsus2
  You put me into space, then hate me when I ask for it

Verse 2:
Dsus2
You make a living sweeping floors and speaking softly
        A7sus4
All the while your spiral galaxy is rising 'til it's godly
Dsus2
  Metamorphosing from a person to a beacon
        A7sus4
You are standing, diagnosing, I'm just waiting to repeat it

Chorus:
G
  And 'cause you tell yourself this story more than half the time
Gbm
  You've got the rest of us in orbit like your satellites
Em
  And while I'm churning at a rate that turns the years to light
G                          Gbm           Dsus2
  You aren't watching as I topple from a distant height
G
  And I make such a deal of using words syllabically
Gbm
  So you're too busy sounding out to shuffle after me
Em
  There's nothing you like less than knowing someone's past your grip

Post-chorus:
G                             Dsus2
  You put me into space, then hate me when I ask for it
Em                            G                      Dsus2
  You put me into space, then hate me when I ask for it

Outro:
Dsus2
 Don't bark like it's high divining
Dsus2
 Don't bite and expect no bruise
Em
 Don't start with the diatribing
G
 Then spite all the love you lose

Dsus2
 Don't bark at the cosmic timing
Dsus2
 Don't bite 'cause you're not amused
Em
 Don't start with a caustic whining
G
 Then spite all the love you lose

Dsus2
 Then spite all the love you lose
Dsus2
 Then spite all the love you lose
Em
 Then spite all the love you lose
G
 Then spite all the love you lose

Dsus2
  Your dog just bit me (Then spite all the love you lose)
Dsus2
But I know he didn't mean it (Then spite all the love you lose)
         Em
Why does every good intention (Then spite all the love you lose)
        G                     Dsus2
Tend to need me to believe it?  (Then spite all the love you lose)
