Chords With Lyrics ------------------ D Dmaj9 G A D Dmaj9 G A
DThe absence of GDmaj7od will bring you Gcomfort, Ababy and Dplanning's for the Dmaj7poor so let's preGtend that we're rF#mich
Bm x 2 Asus4 A and I'm not my body or what I choose to do with it
DFolk singers sing Dmaj7songs for the wGorking, Ababy DWe're just recrDmaj7eation for all thoseG doctors and those lF#mawyers
Bm x 2 there's no relief for their heavy hearts
cause they'll beAsus4 losing boAdies tonight D Dmaj9 G A D Dmaj7 G A D D
And EmRob says mayAbe love won'tF#m let you Bmdown Emall of your Afailures areF#m training Bmgrounds
and Emjust F#mas Gyour Aback's Bmturned you'll A/C#be surpA7rised he says as yourA solitude subsides
D Dmaj7 G A
We could beD daytime drunks if we wDmaj7anted, we'd never get anyGthing done that way Ababy
And we'd sDtill be ruDmaj7led by our dueGling perspF#mectives Bm x 2 and I'm not my story or perspective
or the lAsus4ies I'll tell yAou every time D D7
And EmRob says you lAove, love, love andF#m then you Bmdie I've Emwatched F#mhim Gwhile AsleeBmping A/C#and sA7een him cryA with closed eyes
D Dmaj7 G A D Dmaj7 G A
And Dyou're not happy but you're Dmaj7funny and I'm triGpping over my Ajoy D but I just keep on Dmaj7getting up againG A
D Dmaj7 G A D Dmaj7 G F#m Bm Bm Asus4 A
F#m Teach you how to Bmswim you turn theF#m bad in me intoBm good again
Em F#m G A Bm A/C# A7 A D D7
And EmI say there's tArouble when eF#mverything is Bmfine the Emneed to destrAoy things creepsF#m up on me every Bmtime
and Emjust F#mas lGove's AsilhouBmette A/C#appearsA7 I close my eyes and disappAear with youD tonightD7
andF#m something's got to cBmhange cause ourF#m love's the slowest moBmving train
