Intro:
    Db  Ebm Gb -xDb-x
    Db  Ebm Fm Gb -xDb-x


Db           Ebm                          Gb            -xDb-x
So tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyes
Db                    Ebm         Fm         Gb         -xDb-x
No better version of me I could pretend to be tonight
Db                Ebm  Fm             Gb               -xDb-x
So deep in the swill with the most familiar of swine
      Ebm          Gb      Db   
For reasons wretched and divine


Db          Ebm                    Gb               -xDb-x
She blows out of nowhere roman candle of the wild
Db           Ebm      Fm         Gb           -xDb-x
Laughing her way through my feeble disguise
Db            Ebm        Fm             Gb         -xDb-x
No other version of me I would rather be tonight
     Ebm              Gb    Db      
And lord she found me just in time


               Bbm      Fm            Gb
Cause with my mid-youth crisis all said and done
               Ebm                          B    Cm   Db
I need to be youthfully felt 'cause god I never felt young


Db         Ebm                  Gb                                -xDb-x
She's gonna save me call me 'baby' run her hands through my hair
Db         Ebm                    Gb                               -xDb-x
She'll know me crazy soothe me daily better yet she wouldn't care
Bbm          Fm              Gb                                 -xDb-x
We'll steal a Lexus be detectives ride 'round picking up clues
Db          Ebm                       Gb
We'll name our children Jackie and Wilson raise 'em on rhythm and blues


Db             Ebm                         Gb               -xDb-x  
Lord it'd be great to find a place we could escape sometime
Db           Ebm  Fm     Gb                           -xDb-x
Me and my Isis growing black irises in the sunshine
Db                Ebm  Fm              Gb                 -xDb-x
Every version of me dead and buried in the yard outside
Ebm                 Gb        Db
Sit back and watch the world go by

      Bbm   Fm              Gb
Happy to lie back watch it burn and rust
Ebm                               B    Cm  Db
We tried the world good god it wasn't for us


Db         Ebm                  Gb                                -xDb-x
She's gonna save me call me 'baby' run her hands through my hair
Db         Ebm                    Gb                               -xDb-x
She'll know me crazy soothe me daily better yet she wouldn't care
Bbm          Fm              Gb                                 -xDb-x
We'll steal a Lexus be detectives ride 'round picking up clues
Db          Ebm                       Gb
We'll name our children Jackie and Wilson raise 'em on rhythm and blues

Db            Ebm                      Gb               -xDb-x
Cut clean from the dream that night let my mind reset
Db               Ebm                   Gb           -xDb-x    
Lookin' up from a cigarette and she's already left
Db                     Ebm   Fm                 Gb                          -xDb-x
I start diggin' up the yard for what's left of me and our little vignette
Ebm                      Gb  Db
For whatever poor soul is coming next


Db         Ebm                  Gb                                -xDb-x
She's gonna save me call me 'baby' run her hands through my hair

She'll know me crazy soothe me daily better yet she wouldn't care
Bbm          Fm              Gb                                 -xDb-x
We'll steal a Lexus be detectives ride 'round picking up clues
Db          Ebm                       Gb
We'll name our children Jackie and Wilson raise 'em on rhythm and blues
