Riff 1: D5 , C5 , G5

    D5                         C5            G5
    She says it helps with the lights out 
    D5                                C5       G5
Her rabid glow is like braille to the night. 
    D5                            C5          G5
    She swears I'm a slave to the details 
             D5                     F5   G5               C5   G5            
But if your life is such a big joke,   why should I care? 


     D5                                                          C5  G5
The clock is set for nine but you know you're gonna make it eight. 
         D5     
So that you two can take some time, 
                                C5   G5
Teach each other to reciprocate. 


D5                            F5              G5          C5           G5
She feels that my sentimental side should be held with kid gloves 
    D5                    F5         G5           C5        G5
But she doesn't know that I left my urge in the icebox 
D5         F5           G5           C5        G5                   
She swears    I'm just prey to the female, 
          D5
Well then hook me up and throw me, 
      F5              G5                 C5    G5
Baby cakes, 'cause I like to get hooked. 

 
     D5                                                          C5  G5
The clock is set for nine but you know you're gonna make it eight. 
         D5
All the people that you've loved 
                                       C5   G5
They're all bound to leave some keepsakes. 
          D5
I've been swinging all the time, 
                                C5   G5
Think it's time to learn your way. 
         D5                                             C5   G5
Picture you and me together in the jungle it would be ok. 

     D5                F5        G5                 C5      G5
I'll bring you when my lifeboat sails through the night 
        D5             F5    G5    C5            G5
That is supposing that you don't sleep tonight 


F5  A5  C5            G5                 F5
          It's like learning a new a language 
                            A5    C5   G5 
Helps me catch up on my mime 
                             F5
If you don't bring up those lonely parts 
                      A5   C5  G5
This could be a good time 
                          F5
It's like learning a new language 

                 A5   C5
You come here to me 
                     F5
We'll collect those lonely parts and set them down 
                 A5 C5 G5      F5
You come here to me 

                [ A5 C5 G5      F5 ]

A5       C5                  G5
She says brief things, her love's a pony 
    F5
My love's subliminal 

A5       C5                  G5
She says brief things, her love's a pony 
    F5
My love's subliminal
