      A5
We'll take ourselves out in the street
    G5                                F5     C5
And wear the blood in our cheeks like red roses
    A5                                G5
We'll go from car to sleeping car and whisper in their sleeping ears
F5                C5
We were here, we were here

A5                G5                F5        
We'll set off the geese of Beverly Road

    C5               G5
Hey love, we'll get away with it  
      F5
We'll run like we're awesome, totally genius
    C5               G5
Hey love, we'll get away with it
   F5
We'll run like we're awesome

   A5
We won't be disappointed
      G5                        F5
We'll fight like girls for our place at the table
    C5
Our room on the floor
A5                G5                F5
We'll set off the geese of Beverly Road

    C5               G5
Hey love, we'll get away with it
      F5
We'll run like we're awesome, totally genius
    C5               G5
Hey love, we'll get away with it
      F5
We'll run like we're awesome

C5
We're the heirs to the glimmering world
A5
We're the heirs to the glimmering world
F5
We're the heirs to the glimmering world
F5
We're the heirs to the glimmering world

A5                            G5
We're drunk and sparking, our legs are open
    F5                       C5
Our hands are covered in cake
                      A5
But I swear we didn't have any
G5                 F5
I swear we didn't have any

     C5               G5
Hey, love, we'll get away with it
      F5
We'll run like we're awesome, totally genius
     C5               G5
Hey, love, we'll get away with it

Oh, come, come be my waitress and serve me tonight

Serve me the sky tonight
    F5
Oh, come, come be my waitress and serve me tonight
                                        C5
Serve me the sky with a big slice of lemon
