Standard Tuning (EADGBe)
chord 'F#1' means 'one octave higher'
[verse 1]
I F#used to be a king alone
Like C#Solomon or Rehoboam
And F#in the eaves the corvidae
did C#jealous keep my picture frames
and Fmeverything did G#oxidate in C#place
[verse 2 with different ending]
But F#then you came, a single cell
with C#astrolabe and carousel
and F#algebra and symmetry
and C#none of this was lost on me
and BI Bcould F#1see how Bstill BI'd F#1been befF#ore
If BI Bdon't F#1eat, BI Bdon't F#1sleep at aF#ll.
[bridge 1]
Like limbs in proBcession,
like so many Dm#birds,
stampeding like Boxen,
our hearts are a Dm#herd,
[chorus 1]
I loved you in the C#bed,
I loved you in the Dm#best way possible, C#
I loved you in the Dm#bed,
[bridge 2]
F#Did you see the Bblight in my Bheart?
Did you see the sweat on my brow?
Did you see the fear in my heart?
Did you see me bleeding it out?
[chorus 2 and end]
I loved you in the C#bed,
I loved you in the Dm#best way possible, C#
I loved you in the Dm#best way possible, B
I loved you in the Dm#best way possible, C#
I loved you in the Dm#best way possible, B
I loved you in the bed. F#
