***** CAPO 3 *****


      E5
Well, guy in a skeleton costume
G5                          C5
Comes up to the guy in the Superman suit
                        E5
Runs through him with a broadsword

I flipped the television off
      G5                     C5
Bring all the bright lights up
               E5
Turn the radio up loud
A5
 I don't know why I'm so persuaded
D5
 That if I think things through
C5
Long enough and hard enough
B5
 I'll somehow get to you


             E5
But then you came in and we locked eyes
    A5
You kicked the ashtray over as we came toward each other
           C5
Stubbed my cigarette out against the west wall
B5
 And quickly lit another


E5
Look at that

Would you look at that?
A5
 We're throwing off sparks
E5          D5         A5          E5
What will I do when I don't have you
                      B5    E5
To hold onto in the dark?



     E5
Yes, everybody's gonna need a witness
G5                               C5
Everybody's gonna need a little back up
                       E5
In case the scene gets nasty

You throw the attic window open
      G5                       C5
And I throw myself all around you
                        E5
And night comes to Tallahassee
C5                                   F5
 I don't know why it's gotten harder to keep myself away
C5
Thought I'd finally beat the feeling back
B5
 It all came back today


            E5
And then we fell down and we locked arms
   A5
We knocked the dresser over as we rolled across the floor
C5
 I don't mean it when I tell you
B5
 That I don't love you anymore


E5
Look at that

Would you look at that?
A5
The way the ceiling starts to swerve
E5          D5         A5          E5
What will I do when I don't have you
                             B5
When I finally get what I deserve?

Em till the end (bass changes chords, but I think the guitar part plays just the one chord).
