Intro:Dm Bb x2 (strum each chord once, including first verse)

Verse 1:
Dm                           Bb                  Dm           
I leapt across three or four beds into your arms, where I had hidden myself,
Bb                      F
Somewhere in your charm. Our golden handshake has been 

smashed into this shape
Gm
Its taken magic to a primitive new place. 
          Bb         Am                 Bb     Am
Watch him run, although it, the men are more heroic.

Verse 2:
Dm                         Bb 
We hunched together in one chair out on the deck. 
Dm
In snow that frozen fell down
Bb                F                  
On the modern set. It looked as if I picked your name out of a hat.
Gm
Next thing you know you're asleep in someone's lap...
         Bb          Am                 Bb      Am
Watch him run, although it, The men are more heroic.

Pre-chorus:
Am                               Dm                            Bb
We quit the room, quit so our thoughts can rest, rest them on nothing new
               C                                   Am
That's when we crowd the hall of whatever it is we fell into
            Dm                           Bb         C         F  Dm
Lousy with your good time, with what the majestic cannot find
       Bb          C         F Dm  Bb         C               Dm         F  
In the business of your lives, the perception it is wrong, mile after mile
Bb                          C
The phantom turns, drinking wine from your heels...

Chorus 1:
F     Bb         F     Bb      F    Bb        F Bb C.....
Oooooo—ooooowweeeeooooweeeeooooooooo   (x2)  

Chorus 2/outro:
Bb               F                 C
(Hey la, hey la, hey la, hey laaaaa) x4 then Neko comes in over the 'hey la's' with
         Bb                  F                       C
(We have arrived too late to play the bleeding heart show) x5 
        Bb    F C      Bb              Dm
We have arrived... (x3)  Hey la, hey la, hey la.

-Cheers and buy Twin Cinema!!! (John Baer)
