capo on 1 if you want :)

C
my heart is on my sleeve my head is in the sand
F
i said how did we end up here? you said happenstance
C
but i didn't understand so i made other plans
F
i ran to the ocean washed the blood off of my hands
C
i washed away my tears washed away ten years
F
washed away the empty space in-between my ears
C
and you said all that i mean is that you and me
F
didn't meet because of fate but rather probability
C
and you said the truth's like corn and lies are like weeds
F
you said the schroedinger equation collapsed perfectly
C
and i said mercy me be patient please
F
'cause i don't know a goddam thing about the birds and the bees
C
i just know what i'm like and i'm like what i see
F
even though it's hard to see because you just blinded me
C
and if there's one thing i learned in chemistry
F
it's that the gain of electrons is reduction, obviously
C
but you can't see electrons without machines
F
and you can't tell from my inflection if i'm being mean
C
and i don't know if i can take you seriously
F
sometimes elections depend on the absentees

G                   F
and my family and my friends
                                            C
and all the little kids that love me make me strong
G
and no matter how this ends
F                              C
i know i'll never ever ever be alone

G             F     C
some day i'll be an old lady
G                     F
with a big dress and an apron
   C
a babushka and bare feet
G                 F
i'll be out in my garden
C
on my hands and knees
G
and i'll be singing a song
         F              C
that is really sad and sweet
