Intro: F F7 A7 F F7 A7

Verse 1:
F F7 A7                      F F7 A7
     I was in the other room
F F7 A7                        F F7 A7
     Just laying on the carpet
F F7 A7                         F F7 A7
     Sinking like a summer moon
F F7 A7                         F F7 A7
     Slipping through a tar pit

Chorus:
 Gm                             Bbm
   You weren’t meant to see that
                                 F F7 A7 F F7 A7
   You weren’t meant to see that

Verse 2:
F F7                   A                 F F7 A7
     Of course there’s joy in the mundane
F F7      A                       F F7 A7
     Like hauling down the highway
F F7            A                          F F7 A7
     But then I swerved into the other lane
F F7     A                          F F7 A7
     And flipped over the barricades

Chorus:
 Gm                             Bbm
   You weren’t meant to see that
                                 F F7 A7 F F7 A7
   You weren’t meant to see that

Bridge:
Gm                             Bbm
  I watched the windows shatter
                        F
  As if it ever mattered
                           A
 And for once in my life I see things for what they are
                 Bb
 And not through the lens of profit and achievement
Bb
 It’s nothing when you need it
F                                  A
 One of those fortune cookie proclamations
A                          Gm
 That I could never swallow
                              Bbm
 You weren’t meant to see that
                                F
 All the xxxx I should hold back
                                      A
 'Cause it’s all in my head and I can see it through your swampy eyes
              Gm            Bbm         F F7 A7 F F7 A7 F F7 A7 F
 That I won’t always be the only one for     you      you

Biography

Drawing inspiration from each successive wave of garage rock, The Rare Occasions put their own dark spin on retro. The LA-via-Providence group meshes angular guitar riffs with sweet indie pop melodies, from the blistering psych-anthem “Dysphoric” (Feelers) to the dreamlike “Bug Eyes” (Futureproof). This variability and depth of styles, layered with lyrical themes of existentialism and self-reflection, are what both define The Rare Occasions and set them apart.
