Intro:
E G#m F# B E G#m F#
Verse 1:
Shaking my teBeth loose on your table
The dullest white sEquares I'll never be
Now that you've pBicked each one apart you can't
look atE me
I'll probably lose you G#mnow
But at least the ones I hF#ave still sparkle
Refrain:
B(hold)
Chorus:
EPutting on your makeup everyday before he wakes up
So he could sG#mtomach your face now easier than he
could withF#out
Yeah this is love
This is all that you could want
B (hold)
Open equals heavier
EHold your hand out palm side up
Open, empty, light enough
G#mMinutes all turn to months
This is one thing we have all learned
F#Equations always make up a sum
But it doesn't add up
Verse 2:
(Repeat Verse 1 chords)
Signing up for that second semester
Because you won't marry me without the degree
Once I fix things up right you wont be so
embarrassed of me
But I'll never make it now
But at least looking in the mirror wont feel like
lying
Refrain:
EPosing for your still visions
Acedemic postcard prisons
BRaise your chin, love
EPurged a poem I swore was finished
Heaping lines half chewed unconscious
BSettle on a plot, chalk another loss
Stage set for
Chorus:
EBreathing and choking on swallowed conversations
Clutching and crawling for constant validation
G#mStill nailed in the ruins of corporate
co-dependence
Still stuck on the thought that you're the one
exception
F#All the while the same
BI'm worried that the purpose is
EHow I look, not how I lived
Let's get dolled up and play pretend
G#mCause nothing stays honest when
Every thought is cursed with intent
F#A pulse covered in skin and words covered in lips
BThe taste of regret as it leaves your stomach
ECoating your tongue with every noun
BWatery eyes the only thing that makes sense noEw
Spitting your insides oG#mut
Start over
Start ovF#er
Start over
Start over
Start over
End on B.
There you go. (:
