A5                          C#5
This time of night I could call you up
        B5                              D5
I'd get angry with athletic ease, break common laws in twos and threes
A5                      E5
And if I die clutching your photograph
              B5                         D5
Don't call me boring, it's just 'cause I like you.
    A5                                    C#5
Oh, take me on back, take me on back and take me back
       B5
To the place where I could feel your heart
    D5
Is this the end or just the start of
A5                        E5
Something really, really beautiful
        B5                  D5
Wrapped up and disguised as something really, really ugly?

F#5
Won't you...

            A5             C#5         F#5
Come by and see me, I'm a love letter away                          
D5                              A5              C#5
I'd break your name before I'd say, "I really love you, love you."
D5           A5                          C#5           F#5
No, I don't care if you saw, I watched every inch of film
      D5                 A5
Flash across your Roman features,
      C#5                 F#5
And I loved it, loved it. No, I don't care if
A5                      C#5
You think I'm eager to shut your eyes, well
    B5                               D5
I'm sorry; everybody knows you can't break me with your gutter prose
A5                         E5
Would you believe it, she sent me a letter,        
    B5                                     D5
The ring, it nearly weighs her down, she's got another boy, oh boy.
A5                                      C#5
Steady your ears, steady your ears and read my lips
   B5                        D5
Poetry is not a luxury; it's how I'll break this home
    A5                              E5
And when I'm really ill, won't you cradle me?
       B5                      D5
Man is not a noble animal, but maybe woman is remember,

F#5
I heard you...
                                  
A5                                   C#5          F#5
Inside your room , you said, "You?ve never really lived
           D5                  A5                  C#5 
Until your back?s against the wall.? Oh, did you really mean it?
D5                 A5                       C#5          F#5
I never break my gaze, if just to see the stars remain reflected in your eyes
             C#5
I think it's time to go home

Instrumental:   
Use same progression as verse: A5 C#5 B5  A5  E5  B5  D5

    A5                                               C#5
Oh, tell me your thoughts, tell me your thoughts on liberty.
              B5                    D5
See there's a place where I sink to sleeping
         A5                 E5
She said oh, my vote is as red as my blood
          B5                          D5
Will you join me for another round? I haven't had the chance to speak yet.

F#5
God speed...
              
             A5             C#5               F#5
I break the law once every week to feel your touch,                 
         D5              A5                C#5 
What's a book to you in bed, do you feel better, older?
D5                  A5                 C#5              F#5
This just makes me ill; your name is dripping from my pen
             D5             A5
Still you're not around to curse,
              C#5                      F#5
I'll drop the gun now; I'm still under you...

Instrumental: F#5  D5 repeated

Marianne, you?ll have to go to sleep tonight
A5                                          F#5
Marianne, you?ll have to go to sleep, just shut your eyes and burn the past
