Intro: F Dm Bb C Verse 1: F Pink lemonade on autumn bomber coats. Dm Peter Pan collars but my daughter’s growing up Bb She’s gonna be a lot like me, C but I don’t wanna be at all like me F Yellow buzz-cuts, pulling out stingers, Dm you’re telling me I’m holding up eleven fingers and Bb stranger things than death can happen C to lab rat girls and pretty white rabbits Pre-Chorus: Bb C But everybody knows that. Nobody knows that F Dm everybody’s in on everybody’s business Bb C This isn’t my first Christmas, I know mistletoe when I see it Chorus: F Baby, could you play along with me?

Verse 2: F Cigarette burns, laugh lines, wide dimples. Dm If they could see the future back when times were simple Bb would they kiss your cheek or yank the bandage off? C Let you speak or take advantage of how F If everyone’s sick, well then nobody can catch it, Dm and if everybody’s different how could anybody match?
