Voxtrot - Kid gloves

^EmListen to the sounds of ringing out around you ^Bmthese are the cries of a dying breed ^EmPolitics of hate you'd never get around to ^Bmblood over brains that we never need ^EmI saw you in the back, studied and relaxed ^Bmfixed in the post like a silent stone ^EmSerenity and tact, it's the feeling that I lack ^BmLife in the floors of a stable home

I can tr^Gace you on paper like a ske^Dtch of a smell You're a br^Geath to the runner in con^Dtest In cl^Gose to the nerve, but you r^F#est so far a^Bmway and I have to gi^Gve it up som^Aeday

^DEvery time I close my e^Ayes I see you in fr^Gont of me ^F#mPretending in a l^Emove like th^Dis I have no cho^Aice but to put you in b^Emack of me Don't co^Gver my foot^Asteps ^BmDead weight all right, I know you're no g^Good for me ^BmDead weight all right, I know you're no righ^Gteous leader ^DYou're dead weight-all ri^Aght, that's fine-but get your h^Emands off me You have to touch me with k^Gid gloves You have to touch me with ^Bmkid gloves

^BmBody to the wind, you talk me out of standstill ^EmI never felt so alive at once ^BmFinger to the quick, yes I can feel your hand still ^Empressed to the drain of the coming months

Cheer me ^Emup, cheer me, up I'm a miserable f**k Cheer me ^Cup, cheer me, up I'm a tireless bore Cheer me ^Gup, cheer me up, I'm inv^Fisibly stuck all in ^Emmyself

Because it's r^Gace and it's power at the cen^Dter of life, we’re ^Gblind to the people who^D need us, but yo^Gu're the kind of person who could unde^F#rstand that f^Bmault and I hope to mea^Gsure you som^Aeday.
