            Dm (xx0231@1)
For waiting eyes
               Cm (x3101x@1)                      Dm (xx0231@1)That you would rather be beside than in front of
          Cm (x3101x@1)                      DmBut (xx0231@1)she's never been the kind to be hollowed by the stares

VERSE 1:

     Gm (355333@1)    F (133211@1)   A# (x1333x@1)        FShe (133211@1)swam out of tonight's phantasm

(same goes for this below)

Grabbed my hand and made it very clear
There's absolutely nothing for us here
It's a magnolia celebration
To be attempted on a Wednesday night
It's better than to get a reputation
As a miserable little tyke
At least that's the conclusion
She came to in this overture

Last bar before chorus:

Gm - F - A# - Cm,D#m -

CHORUS 1:

Dm (xx0231@1)                           Gm (355333@1)     The secret door swings behind us
                   Cm (x3101x@1)     She's saying nothing
                  A# (x1333x@1)      A (x02220@1)    
      She's just giggling along

VERSE 2:

Her arms were folded most indignant
Not looking like she was soon to leave
I had to squint in order to believe
And then like a butler pushing on a bookshelf
I'm unveiling the unexpected
How she was never gonna look to?
Suddenly embarrassed and corrected
How could such a creature
Survive in such a habitat

Last bar before chorus:

Gm - F - A# - Cm,D#m -

CHORUS 2:
Dm (xx0231@1)                         Gm (355333@1)

                Gm (355333@1)   She's just giggling along
Dm (xx0231@1)                         Gm (355333@1)   And even if they were to find us
               Cm (x3101x@1)                  Dm (xx0231@1)        F (133211@1)   I wouldn't notice        I'm completely occupied  at all the

Fools on parade
Frolic and fuck about to make her gaze
Turn to a scribble on a page by a picture
That holds her options
But you're daft to think she'd care
