Verse 1:
D5                                      B5
Here's to you, the same chords that I stole
A5                          D5
From a song that I once heard
                   B5             A5
The Same melody I borrowed from the void
D5                                         B5
I'd rather observe than structure a narrative
A5
The characters are thin;
D5                     B5
The plot does not develop
A5                     D5
It ends where it begins

Link; D5 , B5 , A5 (x2)

Verse 2:
D5
It's on the screen, in paperbacks
B5                       A5
In section 8 and cul-de-sacs
D5
Electro haikus and drunk sonnets
B5                A5
Are moving me along
E5
Along

Link: G5 , D5 , G5 , D5

Chorus: (x2)
D5
You cut my hair
B5                A5
You left red ink everywhere
      E5
Do my hands tell a story?
A5
Is it boring?

Link (Palm Muted): D5 , B5 , A5

Verse 3:  (Palm-Muted)
D5
What I'd give to force your sigh
B5                       A5
What I'd give to see you cry
D5
What I'd give for your caress
B5
To see your blue cotton dress
A5
Balled up on the floor
D5
Certain memories are the problem
B5                       A5       D5
Certain drunken lines are the shame
                B5
Seven hundred miles and four years
                        A5       D5
I can't fight the flame; it burns
G5
Burns, and it burns and it burns.

Chorus: (x2)
D5
You cut my hair
B5                A5
You left red ink everywhere
      E5
Do my hands tell a story?
A5
Is it boring?

Outro:
D5
Was I wishing on satellites?
A5                      D5
Tell me how you've been doing that trick
A5                      D5
I'm just wishing the flame away
A5                      D5
Now I'm wishing the flame away



Nota Bene:
On the D's in the outro, and throughout other points during the song, you can add
embellishments to make it sounds a bit more tidy, but you don't have to. If you wanna 
give it
a try, then whilst you're on the regular D Major shape, hit the fourth fret on the D 
string, then move it up to second, then open again. Large.
